Abstract
A stator blades of an axial turbomachine intended to be fitted on a ferrule in an annular row of identical blades. Each blade includes a platform with opposed lateral edges and a screw to the ferrule. The contour of the platform has, at each of the lateral edges, an angular profile designed to mate with the contiguous edge of the platform of an adjacent blade. This feature enables the angular position or pitch of the blade to be set. In a blade row fixed on a stator, mechanical clearances J1, J2, J3 and the fixation screws cause an average angular orientation error. The blades are made with a compensatory angle to offset the angular orientation error.
