Abstract
A method of inspecting a stator stack includes disposing the stator stack on a support surface of an inspection system, and performing a depth measurement of a stator slot. The depth measurement includes rotating the stator slot along a first direction to a plurality of first orientations, taking a first image at each of the first orientations, and measuring a depth based on at least one of the first images. The method includes performing a width measurement of the stator slot, which includes rotating the stator slot along a second direction to a plurality of second orientations, taking a second image at each of the second orientations, and measuring a width based on at least one of the second images. The method further includes inspecting edges of the stator slot in the at least one of the first images to detect a potential deviation.
