A method for producing a stator for an electrical machine as an internal rotor, in particular an electric motor. This method involves providing a multiplicity of separate pole teeth, which are wound. The ends of the winding wire of the pole teeth are connected to one another to create a flexible annular pole tooth assembly, and the flexible assembly is inserted into an injection mold and centered. The assembly located in the mold is encapsulated or sealed in a molding compound. In this way, a dimensionally stable stator with particularly good insulating properties can be produced.
