Reference for electric motor shaft design

[CoryPad]

I am looking for a reference for electric motor shaft design. I see that NEMA MG 1 has some guidelines. What other references (book, textbook, standard, other) are available for learning about this component. I am interested in materials, manufacturing processes, assembly, sizing, and tolerances (straightness/runout, surface finish, etc.).

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Regards,

Cory

Please see FAQ731-376 for tips on how to make the best use of Eng-Tips Fora.

The folks that offer "partial" motors (shaftless rotor and stator sets) include some specs for making shafts and finishing the assembly.

Reuland comes to mind

Corypad, best and i can say preferred is EASA Mechanical Handbook and its related manual. Here, i usually refer our machine shaft rebuilding, fit tolerance, babbit bearing repair and restoration, also includes procedure, etc.
