A rotor for an induction motor includes a rotor core having first and second ends and a plurality of conductor bars. Each conductor bar has a respective first end extending beyond the first end of said rotor core. Each first exposed end has a respective enclosed opening. The rotor also includes an end ring comprising a casting of material flowed between the respective first ends of the conductor bars and through the respective closed openings.

A welding apparatus for an induction motor includes a fixture operable to support a rotor and rotate the rotor about an axis of rotation of the motor, and a welding head supported adjacent the fixture and operable to weld conductor bars located about the surface of the rotor to the first shorting ring when the fixture supports the rotor. A controller controls the fixture to selectively rotate the rotor. The controller moves the welding head, the fixture, or both, so that the welding head is in a welding position, and causes the welding head to weld the conductor bars to the first shorting ring while remaining in the welding position, with the rotor rotating to create a substantially circular weld path along the first shorting ring. In some embodiments, the conductor bars are welded to both shorting rings simultaneously. A method of welding an induction motor is also provided.

A method of manufacturing a rotor assembly includes placing a generally cylindrical rotor core in a die. The rotor core has axial grooves spaced about a perimeter of the rotor core. The grooves may be formed by stacked laminated disks. Material is cast around the annular rotor core in the die such that the cast material forms conductor bars that fill the grooves and first end ring portions at opposing ends of the rotor core connected with the conductor bars. Each of the first end ring portions has substantially a first axial width. The rotor core with cast conductor bars and cast first end ring portions is then removed from the die. A respective second end ring portion is welded to each of the cast first end ring portions to form end ring assemblies. Each second end ring portion has a second axial width greater than the first axial width.

A method of forming a rotor, wherein the rotor includes a plurality of conductor bars each joined to a shorting ring, includes disposing an end of each of the plurality of conductor bars within a respective one of a plurality of cavities defined by the shorting ring. The method also includes, after disposing, deforming the end of each of the conductor bars, and brazing the end of each of the conductor bars to the shorting ring to form the rotor. A rotor includes a shorting ring defining a plurality of cavities therein each having a shape, a plurality of conductor bars each having an end disposed within a respective one of the cavities and joined to the shorting ring, wherein the end is deformable to the shape, and a braze material disposed in contact with the end of each of the conductor bars within a respective one of the cavities.

A method of detecting a gap between a valve seat insert and a port in a cylinder head may include heating the valve seat insert and the cylinder head and generating a thermal image of the valve seat insert and the cylinder head at an interface between the valve seat insert and corresponding port in the cylinder head housing the valve seat insert. The thermal image may be evaluated to determine the magnitude of a gap between the valve seat insert and the cylinder head based on a temperature at the interface between the valve seat insert and the cylinder head.
