A stator having a common varnish and weld insulation includes a stator lamination core and a motor winding wound around the stator lamination core. The motor winding includes a plurality of magnet wires configured such that they are substantially parallel to each other. Each magnet wire has two distal ends configured such that each distal end is welded to one distal end of an adjacent magnet wire, thereby forming a plurality of welded tips. The stator further includes a resin coating the welded tips and the stator. The resin serves as both a primary insulation for the welded tips, and as a varnish for the stator. This dual function of the resin may eliminate the need for separate insulation for the welded tips and varnish for the stator, and allow the resin to be applied to the welded tips and to the stator at substantially the same time.
A method of insulating welded tips of a stator having a stator lamination core and a motor winding with the welded tips, and varnishing the stator, the method comprising:
A system for varnishing a stator having a stator lamination core and a motor winding with welded tips, and insulating the welded tips, the system comprising:
A stator having a common varnish and weld insulation, the stator comprising:
