Engineered in our Dongguan facility and calibrated to strict European manufacturing benchmarks, these proven systems support induction, PSC, BLDC, and shaded-pole stator production lines.
Achieving optimum copper fill factors while eliminating microscopic wire insulation abrasions during radial cuff expansion and axial height compression.
Stator coil forming is a non-linear two-stage plastic deformation process. In the intermediate forming stage, internal expanding mandrels push the newly inserted coils radially away from the stator bore. This creates the essential mechanical window for phase-insulation sheet placement and double-side automatic lacing needles.
Final forming applies simultaneous axial clamping and radial containment dies. The hydraulic press profiles the coil head outer diameter (OD), inner diameter (ID), and protrusion height to exact drawing tolerances, ensuring zero interference with end-shields, rotor shafts, or external housings.
Excessive pressure during end-turn compression risks micro-cracking the Grade 2 enamelled polyester-imide coating, leading to inter-turn short circuits and insulation resistance breakdown under surge voltages.
Our motor coil forming machines utilize mirror-polished Cr12MoV vacuum-quenched tooling (HRC 58-62) with composite bronze/polyurethane buffers. Programmable multi-stage pressure ramp-up in the hydraulic circuit smoothly redistributes magnet wire bundles without scuffing the delicate enamel film.
Modern IE3 and IE4 premium-efficiency regulations mandate slot copper fill ratios exceeding 75%. High fill factors leave minimal clearance between adjacent coils, increasing the danger of wedge displacement during end-turn forming.
Our dedicated tooling maintains rigid tooth-tip guides that physically lock the slot wedges in place while an expanding core aligns each wire cluster. This preserves phase insulation barrier positions and eliminates leakage paths to the grounded stator stack.

Bridging the demanding production requirements of San Marino's precision electromechanical, automation, and fluid dynamics manufacturing cluster.
Domagnano and neighboring municipalities in San Marino and Emilia-Romagna represent a concentrated European supply hub for agricultural irrigation, commercial HVAC circulation, and residential clean-water pumps. Stators designed for submersible deep-well pumps demand elongated lamination stacks with exceptionally compact end-turn profiles to fit within stainless steel outer casings.
Our vertical hydraulic coil forming machines deliver high axial tonnage with stroke depths up to 250 mm. They securely compress coil heads within tight dimensional tolerances without pinching internal thermal protectors (PTO/PTC) or damaging lead wire exits.
Specialized machine builders in Domagnano require short production runs of custom brushless AC servo motors, stepping actuators, and packaging equipment drives. These stators feature skewed slots, concentrated fractional-slot windings, and delicate multi-conductor magnet wire bundles.
Zunqi provides segmented expanding mandrel tooling that expands gradually without asymmetric mechanical load. The modular tool-holder architecture allows quick reconfiguration between IEC frame sizes (63, 71, 80, 90, 100), ensuring local contract manufacturers maintain lean production schedules with zero downtime.
HVAC blower units manufactured in the regional district require continuous duty (S1) shaded-pole and permanent split capacitor (PSC) motors. These motors operate under rigorous acoustic and vibrational limits where uneven coil end-turn overhang can generate electromagnetic hum and thermal hotspots.
Our dual-end forming systems squeeze both upper and lower coil heads in a single clamping stroke. Symmetrical pressure distribution balances phase inductances, lowers harmonic vibration, and guarantees that motor assemblies breeze through European CE acoustic emission inspections.
Several established workshops in Domagnano operate legacy winding lines that still rely on manual wooden mallet hammering or pneumatic hand-forming calipers. This manual method leads to operator fatigue, inconsistent coil profiles, high scrap rates, and frequent earth-leakage faults during high-pot test routines.
Introducing a Zunqi stand-alone hydraulic forming press requires no expensive line reconfiguration. Compact footprints, single-phase 220V or three-phase 380V/400V power matching, and intuitive dual safety palm buttons ensure rapid shop-floor adoption and immediate ROI.
How our motor coil forming machinery aligns with EU Eco-Design Directives, IE4 efficiency mandates, and digitized shop floors.
With European electric motor efficiency thresholds strictly enforcing IE3 and IE4 Super-Premium classes, motor designers cannot tolerate copper loss caused by excessive end-turn length. Longer end-turns add dead electrical resistance ($I^2R$ losses) without contributing torque.
Zunqi forming dies are precision-engineered to compress the axial coil head height down to the theoretical mechanical minimum. Reducing total copper conductor length lowers stator resistance, drops winding operating temperatures by 6–10°C, and aids in achieving IE4 compliance targets.
Due to copper raw material cost volatility, numerous appliance and cooler motor manufacturers in Northern Italy and San Marino have shifted toward high-conductivity enamelled aluminum wire or copper-clad aluminum (CCA). Aluminum exhibits lower tensile strength and a different elastic springback coefficient compared to annealed copper.
Our CNC forming units allow programmable dwell times and micrometer displacement limiting. This ensures the coil end-turn maintains its finished profile after decompression without necking, micro-fissures, or tensile failure of aluminum strands.
Equipment operating within San Marino must seamlessly interface with 400V 50Hz electrical supply networks and comply with European Low Voltage (LVD) and Machinery Directives (EN ISO 12100).
Zunqi equips export machinery with international industrial component options, including Siemens or Omron PLCs, Schneider contactors, Delta servos, and SMC pneumatic units. Control cabinets are systematically numbered with detailed CAD schematics, simplifying routine preventive maintenance.
Factory-direct engineering excellence from Qishi Town, Dongguan — backed by 17+ years of international export verification.
No off-the-shelf mismatch. We design coil formers, insertion blades, and forming dies specifically around your stator lamination drawings (OD, ID, stack height, slot profile, wire gauge, and turns). Every die is manufactured in our in-house CNC machining workshop.
Before any machine leaves our workshop floor, we require customers to ship a physical stator core sample and magnet wire. We conduct a complete production trial run, record high-definition functional test videos, and verify all dimensions prior to export crating.
Beyond coil forming machines, Zunqi manufactures the entire stator and rotor assembly chain: slot insulation inserters, multi-station coil winders, coil & wedge inserters, double-side lacing machines, rotor fine turning lathes, and hydraulic shaft presses. Tooling and cycle times match harmoniously.
Every machine is thoroughly coated with VCI anti-rust oil, heat-sealed in thick barrier film, anchored to heavy steel-skid bases, and crated in fumigation-free export plywood to withstand maritime freight transit through European discharge ports (such as Genoa or Ravenna).
Critical wear components — such as pusher fingers, expansion blades, forming springs, and pneumatic seals — are stocked in standardized dimensions. We provide long-term tooling replacement support whenever you launch a new motor frame size.
