Abstract: A method of determining a readjustment value in position and/or in orientation of a stator segment of a multi segment stator of an electrical machine is provided, the stator segment to be assembled with a shaft, the method including: detecting positions of plural first reference objects attached to the stator segment using a camera system; detecting positions of plural second reference objects attached to the shaft using a laser tracking system; detecting positions of plural third reference objects attached to the camera system using the laser tracking system; determining the readjustment value in position and/or in orientation of the stator segment based on the positions of the plural first, second and third reference objects.

Abstract: An armature assembly apparatus for assembling an armature of an electrical machine is provided. The armature assembly apparatus has an armature holding apparatus to hold a partially assembled armature such that a rotation axis of the armature is horizontal. The armature assembly apparatus has a rotating device for rotating the partially assembled armature about a rotation axis. The armature assembly apparatus also has a ring segment conveyance for conveying an armature ring segment to a mounting position relative to a free ring segment portion of the partially assembled armature.

Abstract: A conveyor apparatus for an assembly line having a number of assembly stations is provided. The conveyor apparatus has a guide realized to define a path of travel for an assembly station, an engaging unit for engaging an assembly station to the guide, and a driving unit for driving the engaging unit along the guide such that the assembly station is moved through successive stages of the assembly line. The assembly line is used for assembling a generator for a wind turbine.
