Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for making a component for use in an electric machine is provided. The method includes applying first and second portions of a first material to a first surface, applying a second material to the first portion of first material; bonding the second material to the first portion of the first material, removing the second portion of the first material to form a void defined by the first portion of the first material, applying a conductive material in the void, and applying an insulating layer to the second material, wherein the process for preparing the component further comprising the steps of: applying first and second portions of a third material to the insulating layer; applying a fourth material to the first portion of third material, and bonding the fourth material to the first portion of the third material.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for making a component for use in an electric machine, the method comprising the steps of: applying first and second portions of a first material to a first surface; applying a second material to the first portion of first material; bonding the second material to the first portion of the first material; removing the second portion of the first material to form a void defined by the first portion of the first material; applying a conductive material in the void, applying an insulating layer to the second material; applying first and second portions of a third material to the insulating layer; applying a fourth material to the first portion of third material; bonding the fourth material to the first portion of the third material; removing the second portion of the third material to form a void defined by the first portion of the third material; and applying a conductive material in the void. 2. The component of claim 1 , wherein the first material and the third material are substantially the same. 3. The component of claim 1 , wherein the second material and the fourth material are substantially the same. 4. A method for making a component for use in an electric machine, the method comprising the steps of: applying first and second portions of a first material to a first surface; applying a second material to the first portion of first material; bonding the second material to the first portion of the first material; removing the second portion of the first material to form a void defined by the first portion of the first material; applying a conductive material in the void; orienting the grain structure of the first material, wherein the step of orienting the grain structure of the first material comprises one of orienting the grain structure in a common direction and orienting the grain structure in a diverse direction. 5. A method for making a component for use in an electric machine, the method comprising the steps of: applying first and second portions of a first material to a first surface; applying a second material to the first portion of first material; bonding the second material to the first portion of the first material; removing the second portion of the first material to form a void defined by the first portion of the first material; applying a conductive material in the void; orienting the grain structure of the first material, wherein the step of orienting the grain structure of the first material comprises orienting the grain structure in a direction corresponding to the magnet field pattern of the electric machine.
