A stator yoke formed with a plurality of layers of similarly sized metal sheets is disclosed. A plurality of gaps extend through the stator yoke between ends of the metal sheets. The gaps decrease in size from an outer layer to an inner layer of the stator yoke. The stator yoke can be formed to have a limited tolerance even when the metal sheets do not have limited tolerances.
