Abstract

A process and device corrects an ascertained unbalance on a rotor (1) that has equidistantly arranged sites along a rotor circumference for an unbalance correction by means of material removal. Correction tools (5,5') arranged at a fixed distance from each other are provided, and the correction tools (5,5') can be positioned crosswise to the rotor axis (10) by a movement between the rotor (10) and the correction tools (5,5') in the tangential direction resulting from the ascertained rotor unbalance. For purposes of material removal, the correction tools (5,5'), are moved, at least in the radial direction between the rotor (10) and the correction tools (5,5'), into the rotor (1) by a movement resulting from the ascertained rotor unbalance. In order to carry out an unbalance correction in one single work step using the simplest possible set-up, just two correction tools (5,5') are provided. During the unbalance correction, the correction tools (5,5') are always made to engage jointly with the rotor (1), and the correction tools (5,5') generate correction components that run essentially towards each other at the angle of a whole-number multiple of the correction site division.
