Abstract: In a method for producing a lamination stack for rotors and/or stators of electric motors or generators, laminations are punched from electrical steel, a light-activated adhesive is applied to at least one side of the laminations, respectively, and the adhesive is irradiated and activated with a light of a required wavelength immediately before the adhesive exits from an application unit. The laminations are then stacked to a lamination stack. An adhesive application device for carrying out the method has at least one application unit with at least one valve for discharging an adhesive. At least one radiation source is arranged in a region of the valve and emits a radiation and directs the radiation to the adhesive provided in the region of the at least one valve.

Abstract: In a method for manufacturing lamination stacks of controlled height in a tool, starting material is provided as continuous strip delivered from a coil or as an individual sheet. Laminations are punched from the starting material in several punching steps to a required contour of the laminations. A heat-curing adhesive is applied onto the laminations prior to performing a last punching step. The laminations are combined to a lamination stack. The laminations of the lamination stack are partially or completely heated in a lamination storage. The adhesive is liquefied by heating the lamination stack to build up adhesion and then solidified. Curing the adhesive at the liquefying temperature or solidifying the adhesive in the tool by cooling and subsequently heating the adhesive to a temperature below the liquefying temperature is possible so that the adhesive does not melt but undergoes further curing resulting in higher temperature stability.

Abstract: In a method for producing stacks of laminations, in which at least one adhesive is applied onto annular laminations with at least one application head and laminations are stacked into a stack of laminations, the lamination is rotated about its axis in the application area of the application head and/or the application head is moved about the axis of the lamination in order to apply the adhesive onto the lamination. A system for carrying out the method features at least one punching tool, with which laminations are punched out of a sheet metal material, wherein at least one station for cleaning and/or for activating and/or for applying an adhesive onto the laminations is arranged downstream of the punching tool.

Abstract: In order to produce a clutch pack (3), clutch plates are cut from an electrical steel strip or sheet, arranged on top of one another to form the clutch pack (3) and connected to one another within the clutch pack (3). The material of the clutch plates is locally plasticised in the edge region via the generation of frictional heat by means of at least one tool (9?), in such a way that the material of at least adjacent clutch plates is mixed with the tool (9?) such that, after the plasticised material has cooled, these clutch plates are integrally connected to one another. The device used for this purpose has at least one punch press and/or at least one receiving means for one or more clutch packs (3). In addition, the device has at least one welding tool that is rotatably driven about its axis and can be moved in a transverse direction to its rotational axis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing lamellae for a lamellae package, wherein the lamellae are punched from a metal strip by at least one punching die. At least one part of the contour of the lamella is produced by stream cutting. The method is carried out such that the lamella is still held in the metal strip. The lamella is punched out of the metal strip by the punching die. The stream cutting results in clean cutting edges, which do not require reworking of the lamella. The device for carrying out the method according to the invention has a stream cutting unit upstream of the punching press which has at least one stream cutting head. A wide variety of lamella contours can be cut out of the metal strip with high accuracy using said stream cutting unit.

Abstract: Plate packs are produced from a sheet-like starting product (1), which is cut to form plates, which are stacked to form a plate pack. The plates within the plate stack are joined to one another by a bonding agent. The bonding agent used is a cyanoacrylate adhesive with a high temperature stability rating. It is applied to a wetting layer (14) for the adhesive. The wetting layer (14) is formulated to a pH in a region >7. The cyanoacrylate adhesive with a high temperature stability rating is able to spread on the wetting layer (14) such that effective wetting takes place, thus achieving quick and secure joining of the plates to one another.

Abstract: The laminated core (12) comprises laminations (10), which are arranged one over the other and which are each connected to each other by means of a first connection (9, 15). In addition, at least some of the laminations (10) are connected to each other by means of a second connection (11). By using two connections, the advantages thereof can be bundled, whereby the number and/or size of the connection points can be reduced while the requirement for the laminated core (12) remains the same or very high requirements for the laminated core (12) can be met or even increased. Advantageously, an adhesive is used as one of the connections (11), while the other connection (9, 15) can be a form-fitting connection. The adhesive (11) is applied to the lower side (13) and/or upper side (14) of the laminations (10) before or after the punching of the laminations (10). However, the two connections can also be formed by two adhesive systems.

Abstract: In a method for producing stacks of laminations, in which at least one adhesive is applied onto annular laminations with at least one application head and laminations are stacked into a stack of laminations, the lamination is rotated about its axis in the application area of the application head and/or the application head is moved about the axis of the lamination in order to apply the adhesive onto the lamination. A system for carrying out the method features at least one punching tool, with which laminations are punched out of a sheet metal material, wherein at least one station for cleaning and/or for activating and/or for applying an adhesive onto the laminations is arranged downstream of the punching tool.

Abstract: A stator/rotor lamination sheet for a stator/rotor lamination of generators and electric motors has spacers, wherein the spacers are monolithic lamination sections that are bent out of a lamination sheet plane about a bending edge and create corresponding recesses in the lamination sheet, wherein the spacers transversely protrude from the lamination sheet plane. A method for manufacturing the stator/rotor lamination sheet provides that a stator/rotor lamination sheet is punched out of a metal sheet; lamination sections are partially punched out out of the metal sheet; and the partially punched-out lamination sections are bent out of a lamination sheet plane of the lamination sheet to form spacers of the lamination sheet.

Abstract: The stack of laminations consists of punched laminations (5), which are bonded together by an adhesive agent. The adhesive agent is composed of an adhesive (4) and an initiator (15), which consists of methacrylates, derivative imines and methacrylic esters. The completely cured adhesive bond has long-term resistance when exposed to a temperature of at least over 80° C. The adhesive (4) is applied over the full surface area and in a contacting manner to one side of the lamination (5) and the initiator (15) is applied to the same side and/or to the other side of the lamination (5). The initiator (15) reacts with the adhesive (4) when contact is made and establishes the adhesive connection between laminations (5) lying against one another. The adhesive agent may, however, also be an adhesive (4) that cures by itself when heat is applied.

Abstract: In a method for producing cast components for electrical applications, a hardenable aluminum alloy is melted and filled into a die casting mold. The melted aluminum alloy is cooled by the die casting mold that is comprised of a material that has a thermal conductivity causing the melted aluminium alloy to be cooled at a cooling rate of approximately ?5×102 K/s. Prior to filling, the melted aluminum alloy is introduced into a fill chamber and the melted aluminum alloy is displaced at a minimal displacement speed within the fill chamber.
