  • Publication number: 20090205443
    Abstract: A method for producing a strain gauge comprises the steps of: preparing a transfer foil film that is obtained by coating an adhesive resin film with a foil made from a resistant material; applying the adhesive resin film surface of the transfer foil film to a desired section of an outer surface of an object whose strain is to be measured, such a roller bearing; and processing the transfer foil film to transfer a foil gauge pattern to the object via the adhesive resin.
