Abstract
A manufacturing method for a rotor core included in a rotor of a motor punches an electromagnetic steel sheet includes punching a plurality of plates for rotor core from an electromagnetic steel sheet; producing a rotor-core precursor by stacking up the plates for rotor core; manufacturing a rotor core by annealing an outer circumferential region of the rotor-core precursor at a first predetermined temperature, and annealing an inner circumferential region of the rotor-core precursor at a second predetermined temperature; the first predetermined temperature being a temperature at which grain growth of crystals of the electromagnetic steel sheet is promoted; and the second predetermined temperature being a temperature at which grain growth of the crystals of the electromagnetic steel sheet is not promoted.
