ABSTRACT:
A turbomachine (1), in particular a turbine or compressor, includes a rotor (2) which has at least one moving blade row (4) with a plurality of moving blades (5), and a stator (3) which has at least one guide vane row (6) with a plurality of guide vanes (7), at least in one of the blade or vane rows (4, 6) all the blades or vanes (5, 7) each having a shroud plate (10). In order to simplify the maintenance of the turbo-machine (1), the shroud plates (10) are separate components with respect to the respective blade or vane (5, 7) and are mounted on the respective blade or vane (5, 7), shroud plates (10) adjacent in the circumferential direction (9) being coupled to one another for the transmission of tensile forces in the circumferential direction (9).
