Deburring gauge for stator of an electric motor

A deburring gauge system for a stator, the deburring gauge system comprising:

• a first gauge set configured to be at least partially inserted into a slot set of the stator, each first gauge part of the first gauge set includes a first body having a first cross-sectional shape that corresponds to a second cross-sectional shape of a respective slot of the slot set, the first body of each first gauge part includes an abrasive portion extending along a length of the first body;
• a second gauge set configured to be at least partially inserted into the slot set of the stator, each second gauge part of the second gauge set includes a second body having a third cross-sectional shape that corresponds to the second cross-sectional shape of the respective slot of the slot set;
• a first gauge holder secured to the first gauge set;
• a second gauge holder secured to the second gauge set;
• and
• a controller in communication with the first gauge holder and the second gauge holder, the controller configured to:
• move the first gauge holder toward the stator so that the abrasive portion of the first body of each first gauge part is at least partially inserted into the respective slot of the slot set;
• move the first gauge holder away from the stator so that the abrasive portion of the first body of each first gauge part is removed from the respective slot of the slot set;
• move the second gauge holder toward the stator so that the second body of each second gauge part is at least partially inserted into the respective slot of the slot set, the second gauge holder being moved toward the stator after the abrasive portion of the first body of each first gauge part is removed from the respective slot of the slot set;
• and
• move the second gauge holder away from the stator so that the second body of each second gauge part is removed from the respective slot of the slot set.

A method for deburring and measuring a slot set of a stator, the method comprising:

• moving a first gauge holder toward the stator so that an abrasive portion of a first body of a first gauge part secured to the first gauge holder is at least partially inserted into a respective slot of the slot set;
• moving the first gauge holder away from the stator so that the abrasive portion of the first body of the first gauge part is removed from the respective slot of the slot set;
• moving a second gauge holder toward the stator so that a second body of a second gauge part secured to the second gauge holder is at least partially inserted into the respective slot of the slot set, the second gauge holder being moved toward the stator after the abrasive portion of the first body of the first gauge part is removed from the respective slot of the slot set;
• and
• moving the second gauge holder away from the stator so that the second body of the second gauge part is removed from the respective slot of the slot set.
