Permanent magnets disposed on the outer circumferential surface of a yoke are reliably and efficiently covered with a cylindrical member of fiber-reinforced resin. A covering apparatus has a holding jig for being forced into an insertion end of the cylindrical member and guiding a rotor when the rotor is inserted into the cylindrical member, and a movable jig for being forced with the holding jig into the cylindrical member, engaging a leading end of the rotor, and being inserted together with the rotor into the cylindrical member. The holding jig and the movable jig have teeth for forcibly expanding the cylindrical member radially outwardly to a diameter greater than the diameter of the rotor.

A wave winding forming device has a winding jig including inner posts and outer posts mounted on a turntable, a guide jig for guiding an enameled wire, and a displacing mechanism for relatively displacing the winding jig and the guide jig in axial and radial directions of the turntable to wind the enameled wire alternately around inner circumferential surfaces of the inner posts and outer circumferential surfaces of the outer posts for thereby forming a wave winding.

A method of and an apparatus for automatically removing deposits such as resin materials adhering to an injection head. According to the method, a liquid reactive resin is poured into a molding cavity internally defined in a mold assembly from an injection head through an injection hole. Then, an automatic cutting device is displaced toward the injection head separated from the injection hole after the reactive resin poured into the molding cavity has been hardened. Thereafter, the automatic cutting device is activated to cut unnecessary hardened resin materials adhering to the injection head. Thus, the hardened resin materials can reliably be removed without subjecting the injection head to damage. It is also possible to effectively prevent the reactive resin from adhering to the injection head when the next molding process is carried out. Further, since a resin material removing process is automatically performed, any burden imposed on an operator can be lightened and the entire molding process can efficiently be carried out.
