Abstract
A sensor device (-) is provided for monitoring a clamping force (F) exerted by a clamping element (-) of a clamping device (-) on a component (), with at least one strain gauge (-), which can be arranged on a surface () of the clamping element (-) of the clamping device (-) and is deformable under the clamping force (F), a transmission module unit () based on electromagnetic transmission technology connected to the at least one strain gauge (-) for detecting a voltage (U) that is indicative of a deformation (f) of the at least one strain gauge (-), and an antenna element () connected to the transmission module unit () for transmitting a signal that is indicative of the detected voltage (U), and for receiving electromagnetic energy for electrical supply of the transmission module unit () and at least one strain gauge (-).
