Abstract
Systems and methods for manufacturing stators for electric submersible pumps, where a stator core having an inner portion and an outer portion is formed. The inner portion has a plurality of teeth and outward-facing slots. Magnet wire coils are formed on the inner portion by holding the inner portion in a stationary position and using a linearly movable robotic arm to position the magnet wire in each slot while preventing the wire from sliding axially with respect to the stator and adjacent turns of the coil. After forming the magnet wire coils on the inner portion of the stator core, the outer portion of the stator core is press-fit onto the inner portion to close the slots. The magnet wire can thereby be positioned to maximize the fill factor of each slot and increase power density for a given temperature rise.
