Abstract
A rotary machine (e.g., motor or generator) has end caps with plastic piloting rings that engage a stator's plastic winding frame in an interference fit, so that a rotor seated by bearings in the end caps is properly aligned with the stator. The flexibility of the plastic-to-plastic fit allows looser tolerances in comparison to machining of all-metal end caps, while the average circle of the piloting ring's outer diameter still assures proper concentricity of rotor shaft, bearings, piloting rings and stator.
