A manufacturing method of a core for a rotary electric machine including forming a bridge portion, forming a stator side hole portion in at least a first portion of a portion of an electric steel plate in which a slot portion is formed. Then forming a rotor side hole portion in at least a part of a portion of the electric steel plate in which a hole portion is formed; and forming a rotor plate member and a stator plate member by blanking the electric steel plate.

A method for stamping and stacking sheet metal parts (2) to form lamination stacks (3) is disclosed. In order to facilitate the separation of joined sheet metal parts (2) into lamination stacks (3), a second stamping-out of at least one second sheet metal part (20) is performed in a step preceding the first stamping-out, as well as a pushing-back of the separating element (19) into a region of the electrical steel strip (5) from which the second sheet metal part (20) has been stamped and a pushing-out of the separating element (19) from the electrical steel strip (5) with the first stamping-out.

Metal sheets are connected in that a hole is introduced into metal sheets of a first stack, and a region of metal sheets of a second stack are deformed in a stack direction. The deformed region can be plastically deformed in such a way that there is interlocking of the deformed region with at least one metal sheet lying below same. In embodiments, the hole has a shape with a reduced width at the center.

A manufacturing method for a laminated iron core includes conveying a sheet steel strip in an intermittent manner in a lift up state, with upward movement of the strip being limited by a guiding member provided on a lower holder; punching an outer shape of each iron core laminae; and applying adhesive agent to a surface of the strip before the punching. The adhesive agent is applied in a state in which a pilot pin is inserted in a pilot hole of the strip and when the strip is about to be pressed against or is being pressed against the die plate by a stripper provided on an upper holder. After application of the adhesive agent, the strip is returned to the lift up state by raising the upper holder, with a lifter and the stripper plate being in abutment with the lower and upper surfaces of the strip, respectively.

In a brake-disc intermediate product, a corrugated portion is molded using an upper mold and a lower mold. The brake-disc intermediate product is set in a mold, the mold has a slope corresponding to the corrugated portion, and an angular portion formed along the outer circumferential edge of the corrugated portion is in contact with the slope in a state where the brake-disc intermediate product is set in the mold. The angular portion in contact with the slope is deformed by pressing the brake-disc intermediate product in a direction of the mold, to mold a chamfer portion. The slope is formed so that a chamfering angle formed with respect to an inner bottom surface of the mold is larger at a portion in contact with the concave portion than a chamfering angle at a portion in contact with the convex portion.

A manufacturing method of a core for a rotary electric machine includes: a step of forming a stator side release hole in at least a first portion of a portion of an electric steel plate in which a slot portion is formed; a step of forming a rotor side hole portion in at least a part of a portion of the electric steel plate in which a hole portion is formed; a step of forming a flattened portion; and a step of forming a rotor plate member and a stator plate member by blanking the electric steel plate.

Provided is a method for manufacturing an iron core that enables reduction of variations in dimension of a plurality of metal plates that occur during pressing of the laminate of these metal plates. The method includes: a laminate preparation step of stacking a plurality of metal plates to prepare a laminate; a pressing step of giving a temperature gradient to the laminate and pressing the laminate with a pressing machine having a punch and a die; and a temperature-gradient removal step of removing the temperature gradient from the laminate. The pressing step gives the temperature gradient to the laminate so that the temperature rises from the punch-side to the die-side in the stacking direction of the laminate.
