Abstract
A method of manufacturing a stator winding includes a twisting step of U-shaped conductor segments having a pair of straight portions by moving the straight portions in the circumferential direction while restraining the turn portions of the U-shaped conductor segments in the axial direction by a pressing tool. After the previously twisted U-shaped conductor segments are inserted into slots of a stator core, the straight portions are bent in the circumferential direction. The pressing tool is constituted of a stationary top plate that has recesses into which the straight portions are inserted and a movable top plate that is movable to close the recesses after the straight portions are inserted in the recesses.
