A stator and a magneto quite similar except a stator system requires the presents of power inorder to generate power and as for the magneto generates its own energy, a stator inside state magneto outside state.

A magneto uses permanent magnets for the field which may be a spinning rotor or a fixed field. As long as the magnetic field cuts through a coil or coils of wire is what matters. A motorcycle magneto is just that, a stator with a number of coils wired to get the volts and current needed and a rotor lined with magnets to supply the field. altho bikers call it the stator that charges the battery and works the lites ignition etc. it is STILL a magneto. It does require a rectifier to charge the battery and is usually a combo rectifier/regulator.
A car alternator has a stator or frame of coils the does not move, hence the name stator for stationary. It has a multi-pole rotor that is not made of magnets but is an electro-magnet meaning current must flow through a coil to get the rotor excited or having a magnetic field. This is done by sliprings on the rotor wired to the coil and current enters through brushes. when the battery is 'up' less current goes thru the rotor and voltage out is a bit less so as not to sazzle the lights.
The alternator has a built in diode bridge to turn a.c. to d.c. to charge the battery work the lites and ignition system as well as other accessories.
Both motorcycle mag /stator and car alternator require a voltage
regulator so the battery gets a proper charge. The regulator and rectifier are mostly one unit on the bike.

Where is the magneto on a ATV?
It is actually the stator or flywheel, the coils in the stator is the magneto which is under the flywheel
Difference between magneto and ac generator?
magneto is dc
What is difference between magneto and AC generator?
a magneto puts out dc electricity
What is the phase difference between stator mmf and rotor mmf?
The phase diference is proportional to the load
What is the difference between vector control and Stator Voltage control method of induction motor?
I need the answer of this question plz!!
An important difference between a universal and a split-phase motor is that the split-phase motor has?
two windings on the stator
How do you time the magneto?
place the magnet on the flywheel in front of magneto and place a buisness card between flywheel and magneto and tighten magneto down.......remove buisness card..
What is the difference between a synchro and resolver?
1.synchro is a electromecnical device of three stator and one rotor,whearas resolver is a device of two rotor and two stator 2. In synchro stator is 120 deg aparted,,,,,,,,in resolver 90 deg aparted 3.synchro output in taken from stator,,in resolver output can be taken from either synchro or rotor
What is the difference between a magneto and a coil?
An ignition coil requires external electrical power. A magneto requires only mechanical power to create an ignition spark. If an engine HAS no electrical power (lawnmower, tiller, chain saw) then a coil would not function.
What is the difference between an alternator and a stator?
An alternator is a device that generates power for an automobile to run its electrical loads and to charge the battery. A stator is one of the internal parts of the alternator, specifically the stationary windings that generate the 3-phase AC.
Briggs and stratton 6.75 magneto gap?
Most of the Briggs engines can be gapped simply with a business card between the flywheel and the magneto.
How do you clean a magneto?
take magneto off and use fine sandpaper or emory board and knock off surface rust on edge that contacts flywheel........when replacing turn flywheel to where magnet is in front of magneto and place buisness card between flywheel and magneto and tighten down ...remove buisness card......
