Method for manufacturing laminated iron core

A method for manufacturing a laminated iron core, the method comprising:

• forming a plurality of iron core members by punching a metal sheet along a predetermined shape;
• and
• laminating the plurality of iron core members on a jig, the jig comprising a first positioning portion and a second positioning portion disposed at different positions in a circumferential direction around a predetermined axis,
• wherein the first positioning portion is configured to regulate a position of a first portion of each of the plurality of iron core members in the circumferential direction,
• wherein the second positioning portion is configured to regulate a position of a second portion of each of the plurality of iron core members in the circumferential direction, and
• wherein in the laminating the plurality of iron core members, the plurality of iron core members are laminated on the jig such that a gap is provided between the first portion and the first positioning portion and a gap is provided between the second portion and the second positioning portion.
