Abstract

A method of assembling a rotor portion adapted to be used in a rotatable transverse flux electrical machine (TFEM) is presented, the method comprising assembling at least one concentrator to a concentrator-receiving jig, applying bonding material between the concentrator and a magnet-and-concentrator supporting frame, assembling the concentrator-receiving jig to the magnet-and-concentrator supporting frame wherein a radial reference portion of the concentrator-receiving jig is material to set a distance between the concentrator assembled to the concentrator-receiving jig and the magnet-and-concentrator supporting frame, curing the bonding material to secure the concentrators to the magnet-and-concentrator supporting frame, and removing the concentrator-receiving jig without the at least one concentrator that remains secured to the magnet-and-concentrator supporting frame. A tool thereof is also encompassed by the present application.
