A method of manufacturing a laminated core includes supplying a stator material to a punching device and obtaining an electromagnetic steel plate corresponding to a rectangular processed body by punching the stator material. To obtain the electromagnetic steel plate ES, a slit is formed outside a processed body forming area in the stator material along a long side of the processed body forming area, and a center portion of the processed body forming area is punched out in a circular shape. Additionally, the processed body forming area is punched out after the slit is formed and the center portion is punched out. The laminated core is obtained by laminating and fastening a plurality of the electromagnetic steel plates.

This method includes: a coil assembly step of combining a plurality of coil units to form a coil basket; a core insertion step of inserting inner cores of in the radial direction to the coil basket; and a fixation member insertion step of inserting a fixation member to the outer circumference of the inner core. In the core insertion step, the radial-direction position of the coil basket is retained at a core insertion time position shifted outward in the radial direction relative to a normal position after armature completion, and the inner cores are inserted in the radial direction to the coil basket. After the core insertion step, the radial-direction positions of the coil basket and the inner cores are moved inward in the radial direction to the normal position after armature completion.

A device for producing a stator for an electrical machine includes a segment feed for feeding stator segments, a cylindrical press for pressing the stator segments, a housing feed for feeding stator housings, and a mandrel for receiving the stator segments.
