A compressor or expansion machine for fluids comprises a rotor, a casing at least partially surrounding the rotor and a pinion which is rotatable about an axis which is not parallel to the rotor axis. The rotor is provided with helical threads having crests which are disposed on a surface of revolution about the rotor axis and the pinion has teeth which engage between two adjacent threads of the rotor to form a compression or expansion chamber in conjunction with the casing, the flanks of the pinion teeth comprising at least three skewed surfaces which intersect in at least two edges.
