| Tooth module format | Independent SMC tooth, tooth pair, grouped tooth module, carrier-ready tooth segment, or pre-coated winding-ready tooth | The format should match winding sequence, holder concept, validation plan, and final retention method instead of only the electromagnetic model. |
| Parent stator envelope | OD 30-800 mm; ID 25 mm min.; axial height 5-110 mm | The individual tooth is reviewed against rotor clearance, holder geometry, and final stator stack-up. |
| Tooth count / circular pitch | 3-112 tooth positions | Higher counts increase the need for pitch fixtures, datum discipline, and cumulative error control. |
| Tooth geometry CTQs | Tooth height, pole-face width, root width, root radius, draft, air-gap face flatness, side-wall taper, and winding-window clearance | These features drive torque-ripple risk, holder fit, winding access, green strength, and inspection strategy. |
| Demolding microcrack risk review | Tooth-root transition, sharp inner corners, tall thin walls, ejection face, parting line, compacted edge, and green-part transfer path | Microcrack and chip risk should be screened during DFM and then tied to visual criteria, sample handling, and inspection records. |
| Density and mechanical route | 7.4-7.6 g/cm3 target where SMC grade, tooth geometry, and compaction route allow | Final density target depends on SMC grade, tooth height, wall thickness, compaction direction, green strength, and acceptable local variation. |
| Winding and insulation interface | Bobbin fit, pre-wound coil clearance, concentrated winding, flat-wire access, coating area map, coating thickness window, and optional Hi-pot scope | The tooth can pass dimensional inspection but still fail assembly if coating, slot clearance, and winding sequence are not reviewed together. |
| Retention / holder interface | Nonmagnetic holder, aluminum carrier, clamp ring, adhesive land, overmold, potting, encapsulation, housing pocket, or buyer-defined fixture | Mechanical retention must be validated against axial magnetic pull, vibration, thermal cycling, winding assembly, and inspection datum transfer. |
| Encapsulation / potting boundary | Loose tooth, carrier-ready tooth, holder-fitted sample, coated tooth, potted subassembly, or encapsulated stator module | Quote pressed tooth, coating, holder fitting, adhesive, potting, encapsulation, and assembled-stator evidence as separate scope items. |
| Inspection and release package | FAI, CMM/3D scan, CTQ table, density or weight result, crack/chip visual check, coating or Hi-pot note, carrier-fit note, sample IDs, and traceability | Engineering, sourcing, and supplier quality should agree which records are needed before sample release or pilot sourcing. |
