  • Publication number: 20240429795
    Abstract: A system for processing a hairpin for a stator includes an alignment part having a pre-inserting jig configured to perform a pre-inserting (pre-alignment) process on a hairpin, and a cartridge stock configured to store a plurality of different hairpin cartridges. A hairpin cartridge of the plurality of different hairpin cartridges is configured to supply the hairpin to the pre-inserting jig. The hairpin processing system also includes a cartridge transfer loader configured to selectively transfer the hairpin cartridge from the cartridge stock to the alignment part. As a result, the hairpin processing system advantageously simplifies the structure and treatment process of processing a hairpin of a stator and improves the productivity and production efficiency.
