Features

In our modern society, machines and structures are essential for safe, smooth living, requiring confirmed functionality and safety. Strain gages are key sensors that detect and measure strain and stress, ensuring these facilities remain safe.Strain gages, fundamental sensors for detecting and measuring strain and stress, play a key role in ensuring the safety of these facilities.

The history of strain gages dates back to 1938 when Simmons & Ruge first designed bonded type strain gages in America. In 1962, SHOWA Company began manufacturing foil grid type strain gages in Japan, marking the first of its kind. These devices are essential for assessing the strength and properties of materials like metals, rubber, plastics, and ceramics used daily.
