Lamination

Overview

The tools available in the lamination tab allow in defining the outer shape of the lamination.

Three choices are available to define the lamination topology: Circular or Square.

By default, the outer shape of the lamination is defined by considering the outer diameter of the stator (defined in structural data).

In that case outer shape of lamination is circular without extensions. Outer dimensions of lamination are indicated in general data (structural data part). See illustration below.

Original structural data of the stator: Outer and inner stator diameters
