Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for joining at least two rotor elements of at least one rotor of a turbomachine. The detecting of a radial runout of at least one radially outer-lying cylindrical surface of the rotor elements at each of at least two points that are spaced axially apart from each other occurs by a measuring device. Depending on this, a relative mounting alignment of the rotor elements with respect to one another, at which the distance of the total center of mass of the rotor is minimized relative to its total axis of rotation, is determined. The invention detects of the radial runout of the radially outer-lying cylindrical surfaces of the rotor elements occurs optically by at least one optical sensor element of the measuring device. The invention further relates to a measuring apparatus and to a mounting apparatus.
