An electric machine, including a housing, a rotor which includes a rotor shaft and a rotor laminated core, and a stator which includes a stator laminated core. The stator laminated core includes grooves in which stator windings are received. A respective tooth of the stator laminated core is arranged between two respective grooves that are arranged adjacent to one another in a circumferential direction of the stator laminated core. An annular gap is configured between the rotor laminated core and the stator laminated core, and a tooth head ring is arranged in the annular gap, a respective recess of the tooth head ring arranged between two tooth arranged adjacent to one another in a circumferential direction of the tooth head ring. A relative position of the stator laminated core and the tooth head ring is adjustable to a first and second relative position.
