A method, a processing line and components of the processing line for making a stator for electric motors, and the resultant stator. The conducting wire is wound in coils having at least one straight portion which is inserted into a corresponding stator sector. The sector is thus deformed to move its teeth close to each other and to close the straight portion of the coil. Multiple stator sectors so made are assembled together to form a stator complete with windings. During the production of stator sectors, the coils and/or stator sectors are rototranslated to bring them to the final position they must take inside the finished stator. Measures are provided to maximize the filling factor, to minimize torque ripple phenomena, to minimize noise and the vibrations of the electric motor achieved with the stator, and to maximize its performance, under other equal conditions.
