A generator injection tool is provided. The generator injection tool injects an adhesive into a generator that includes a rotor positioned within a stator having a stator vent, the stator and rotor having a gap therebetween. The generator injection tool includes a first carriage sized to fit within the gap, a tube, a first motor, a controller, and an adhesive source. An end of the tube is movable between a first position in which the end is outside of the stator vent and a second position within the stator vent. The first motor is operable to move the tube between the first position and the second position. The controller is operable to selectively activate the first motor to position the end of the tube within the stator vent. The adhesive source moves the adhesive through the tube end to inject a portion of the adhesive into the stator vent.
A generator injection tool for injecting an adhesive into a generator that includes a rotor positioned within a stator having a stator vent, the rotor and the stator cooperating to define a gap, the generator injection tool, comprising:
A method to inject an adhesive into a stator vent within a stator of a generator that includes a rotor positioned within the stator while the rotor is positioned within the stator, the method comprising:
