During the operation of a motor, the most ideal state is to have the stator and rotor iron cores axially aligned, ensuring maximum effective iron length. However, in practical situations, due to the heat generated during motor operation, components will expand and thus require determining the movable end and the fixed end according to the actual structure of the motor, leaving necessary axial clearances. In addition to normal thermal deformation, misalignment of the stator and rotor iron cores can occur during motor operation due to magnetic forces, leading to axial movement of the motor rotor. The direct consequence of this issue is misalignment between the stator and rotor, resulting in axial forces on the bearings.
