Abstract

A coil placing machine having an improved operating sequence for positioning coil separating insulators in certain core slots is disclosed. The insulators are supported about a coil placing machine super structure and stripped therefrom into the respective slots by movement of the stator core into position for receiving coils from the placing machine. In the preferred apparatus a stator gage and blade aligning tool has a first portion for engaging blades of a coil placing apparatus and the second portion for axially and radially aligning a stator core with the coil placing apparatus as well as a portion intermediate the first and second portions for supporting insulators in a position to be transferred to a stator core by relative motion between the core and tool. With this arrangement, the motion normally required to position the stator core preparatory to receiving coils is also effective to locate the intermediate insulators in the stator core.
