Abstract
A blading assembly () for a turbomachine, and to a turbomachine having improved flow characteristics. The blading assembly () has an endwall () on which a plurality of airfoils are formed adjacent one another, each airfoil () of the plurality of airfoils having a leading edge (), a trailing edge (), a chord (c), a pressure side (), and a suction side (); the endwall () having, between adjacent airfoils (), a depression () in a region () of the pressure side () and a first thickened area () in a region () of the suction side (). The first thickened area () begins at a point at least 10% of the chord (c) away from the leading edge ().
