Rotor

The rotating member of an induction motor made up of stacked laminations. A shaft running through the centre and a squirrel cage made in most cases of aluminium which holds the laminations together and act as a conductor for the induced magnetic field. The squirrel cage is made by casting molten aluminium into the slots cut into each lamination.
