APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING STATOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a production cost due to increase in the number of joints in the manufacture of a stator for rotary electric machines. SOLUTION: A control unit executes a program including: a step in which the temperature of a coil is computed (S2000); a step in which arithmetic operation is performed based on the computed temperature of the coil to compute command values for current and voltage (S2100); a step in which power is supplied to the coil based on the command values (S2200); a step in which the temperature of the coil is computed (S2300); a step in which it is determined whether the computed temperature of the coil exceeds the melting temperature of brazing material (S2400); and a step in which, when the temperature of the coil exceeds the melting temperature of the brazing material (YES at S2400) and the time required for brazing has passed (YET at S2600), the energization of the coil is stopped.
