Abstract
A method of manufacturing a rotor for a generator of an aircraft engine. The method includes providing a rotor body; mounting at least one magnet on the rotor body; wrapping a tow around the rotor body and the at least one magnet to form a wrapped tow having a plurality of layers overlaid in the radial direction; and curing the wrapped tow to form at least a part of a fibre-reinforced composite sleeve configured to retain the at least one magnet on the rotor body. The step of wrapping includes applying a controlled tension to the tow during wrapping. The controlled tension is varied according to the radial position of the layer being wrapped.
