Abstract
A self-balancing device for a rotating machine part, includes an unbalance compensation disk, which is made through a non-cutting process and surrounds a rotation axis of a rotating machine element. A plurality of compensating masses is freely movable in an interior space of the compensation disk and assumes automatically a position to compensate an unbalance of the machine element. The compensation disk includes a first half shell and a second half shell having two axial partition planes, which are spaced from one another in a radial direction, wherein the first and second half shells are non-detachable connected to one another.
