Abstract

A balancing group (22) is described for the rotor of a fluid rotary machine (10), wherein the rotor is of the type comprising at least one shaft (16) equipped with an internal pass-through hole (20) which develops along the longitudinal axis (A) of the shaft (16). The balancing group (22) includes at least a first inner element (24) and at least a second outer element (26), the first inner element (24) being suitable for being engaged by interference, in the direction of the longitudinal axis (A), inside the second outer element (26). The balancing group (22) thus formed is suitable for being inserted, in the direction of the longitudinal axis (A), inside the pass-through hole (20) of the shaft (16).
