  • Publication number: 20240186870
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a compressor includes fixing a stator core to an inside of a barrel via a resin member by shrink fit. An outer peripheral surface of the resin member is a first joining surface. A surface in contact with the first joining surface on an inner peripheral surface of the barrel is a second joining surface.
