Zusammenfassung:A temporary rail system (12) is provided in the invention for installing a stator core (14) in a generator frame (16). The rail system includes rail assemblies (18, 20, 22, 24), where each rail assembly includes support pieces (19, 21, 23) axially positioned at a circumferential location (26, 28, 30, 32) along frame rings (34, 36, 38, 40, 42) of the frame. The rail assembly also includes fasteners (48) to secure the support pieces to the circumferential location. The rail assembly also includes lifting assemblies (52) positioned on each support piece, a support beam segment (62, 64) positioned on each lifting assembly, and a rail segment (66, 68) positioned on each support beam segment such that a rail (69) including the rail segments is axially positioned along the support pieces of the rail assembly.
