Skew
Arrangement of laminations on a rotor or armature to provide a slight angular pattern of their slots with respect to the shaft axis. This pattern helps to eliminate low speed cogging effects in an armature and minimise induced vibration in a rotor as well as reduce associated noise. Also can help to increase starting torque.
