The method for producing the strain gauge device () comprises a first stop of producing the band (). The band () has flexibility at least in the measuring zone (). Then a sensor () comprising at least one measuring strand () and changing electrical resistivity in dependence of the strain is produced and arranged on or in the band () without pre-tension. Afterwards the shape of the band () is changed into a retaining working shape and thereby the measuring strand () is stretched to an amount of pre-tension.

Method for producing a strain gauge device

Heatshield with at least one hole, characterized in that an embossment pattern is arranged around the hole, whereby the embossment pattern comprises of a plurality of protruding elongated elements extending or radiating essentially perpendicular to the perimeter of the hole.

Strengthening embossment for mounting

A heat shield for a vehicle comprising at least one layer of a 3D structured metal sheet with a plurality of indentations or embossments, wherein the embossments protrude in a common direction normal to the surface of the sheet material, defined as the neutral plane n. The embossments also protrude a first distance h away from this neutral plane and together form a regular network, where each embossment forms a junction by intersecting with at least two other embossments.
