Abstract
A rotor for connection to a stationary member for use in an electric machine is provided. The rotor includes a body defining a center of rotation of the body. The body further defines a first surface extending in a direction generally perpendicular to the center of rotation. The rotor also includes a magnet connected to the body and an adhesive. The adhesive is positioned between the magnet and the body. The adhesive is adapted to assist in securing the magnet to the body. The first surface of the body is adapted to permit removal of material from the body and to assist in balancing the rotor.
