Abstract
Disclosed is a two-piece shaft assembly for a driven turbocharger with a traction drive. The turbo shaft is attached to a turbine and compressor, and is inserted into a traction barrel that has traction surfaces to mate to the traction drive. In this way, the traction drive can be assembled with only the traction barrel, and the turbo shaft can be inserted through the barrel at the end to simplify assembly.
