Abstract

An armature shaft having a cam body extending from one end thereof is inserted into a shaft-receiving transfer block of an armature lamination and shaft assembly machine so that the cam body has a desired angular orientation relative to the axis of rotation of the armature shaft. A stack of laminations with which the shaft is assembled is rotationally oriented using a rotatable support for the lamination stack and a pair of proximity detectors which sense the position of missing portions of one or more of the laminations.
