Abstract

A compressor in a multi-stage axial form of construction, with a rotor which is mounted overhung and includes a plurality of moving-blade rings on blade carriers connected to one another, and with a blade arrangement, in which the moving-blade ring of the first stage forms the blade cascade arranged furthest upstream. At least one of the rotating blade carriers is produced in an MMC form of construction, that is to say as a metal component fiber-reinforced at least in regions, and the rotary bearing absorbing the large part of the radial loads occurring on the rotor has a predetermined breaking point which, when a defined radial load is exceeded, allows a radial shift of the rotor, with the result that the latter brushes against the stator.
