With the help of a strain gauge, the strain and stress in the material can be determined and conclusions about the stress of the component can be drawn.
We develop professional in-house SG applications on your components according to your specific needs. Thanks to the many years of experience of our employees in the field of SG applications, we ensure the highest quality of the measuring points and a very long service life.
We are happy to advise you on the following aspects of your project:
Precisely define appropriate measurement points with the expert assistance of our experienced staff
Upon request, we will create computer simulations based on your design drawing using finite element method (FEM) to predict and visualize the forces (stresses) that may occur
Choose the right strain gauge carefully
