Stator for an electric machine having end windings pressed into a housing

A stator (1) and a method for manufacturing such a stator for an electric machine. Windings of the stator (1) protrude in the longitudinal direction beyond a cylindrical stator body (3) in the form of end windings (17, 19) on end faces (13, 15) of the stator body (3). In this case, a complementarily designed accommodating region (31) is provided on a housing (21), with the result that, when the housing (21) is assembled with the stator body (3), the windings of the end winding (17) can be pressed. As a result, good thermal contact can be effected between the end winding (17) and the housing (21), which is cooled via a cooling apparatus (25), for example.
