    Abstract: A system for manufacturing a rotor for a permanent magnet (PM) motor is provided. The system includes a mold configured to receive a rotor body including a plurality of rotor teeth and defining one or more rotor cavities and a plurality of electromagnetic coils including a plurality of magnetic cores, each of the plurality of magnetic cores configured to align with a respective one of the plurality of rotor teeth, and a plurality of electromagnetic windings. The system further includes a controller configured to, after the rotor body is positioned within the mold, close the mold, after closing the mold, excite the plurality of electromagnetic coils, inject a magnetic material into the one or more rotor cavities, wherein the excited electromagnetic coils align the magnetic material into a desired magnetic orientation prior to solidification of the magnetic material, de-energize the plurality of electromagnetic coils.
