Abstract: In a method, a short-circuit ring for a squirrel cage of an electric machine is produced through an automated additive production method in one piece with a recess for receiving one end of a cage bar. Material is introduced into a well with a well contour adjacent to the recess on a front axial end of the short-circuit ring through the additive production method, and introduction of the material is repeated into further such wells until all the wells to be filled have been provided with the material, so that the short-circuit ring is connected to the cage bars in an electrically conductive and mechanically robust manner.

Abstract: In a method for producing a rotor, permanent magnets are arranged about a lateral surface in a recess of a rotor body from a selected position, e.g. a central position of the longitudinal extension of the rotor body, toward one side or toward two sides along an axis of rotation of the rotor body in side-by-side disposition. An end plate band covers a variable gap formed as a result of manufacturing tolerances of the permanent magnets between an outer face of an outermost one of the permanent magnets and an inner surface of the recess in an area of the recess which is non-parallel to the lateral surface. Subsequently, the permanent magnets and the end plate band are covered with a sleeve.
