Abstract
An electrical machine includes a stator with a stator body supporting an electrical stator and a rotor, the rotor being supported by a bearing having a radial bearing section forming a radial gas bearing and an axial bearing section forming an axial gas bearing. The stator side parts of the bearing sections includes an axial bearing assembly and a bushing. The bushing is aligned relative to the stator body by the bushing being aligned relative to a reference body and by the reference body being aligned relative to the stator body. The rotor is removable from the stator body while leaving the reference body in place.

An electrical machine comprising a stator with a stator body supporting an electrical stator and a rotor, the rotor being supported by means of a bearing comprising a radial bearing section forming a radial gas bearing and an axial bearing section forming an axial gas bearing, the stator side parts of these bearing sections comprising an axial bearing assembly and a bushing,
- wherein the bushing is aligned relative to the stator body by the bushing being aligned relative to a reference body and by the reference body being aligned relative to the stator body,
- wherein the reference body is aligned relative to the stator body by a first reference surface of the reference body being pressed against a stator body reference surface of the stator body,
- wherein the rotor is removable from the stator body while leaving the reference body in place.
