Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a method for force measurement in connection with a manufacturing machine (10). In the method an indirect measurement is done by measuring deformation of at least one a frame part (21, 22, 23, 24, 25) or corresponding support structure in connection or near the force measurement target (N) of the manufacturing machine (10) by at least two strain gauges (31, 32, 33, 34, 35) or corresponding measuring devices with lower exactness and measurement value is given a weighting coefficient to get the force value (NF) of the measurement target (N).The invention also relates to an arrangement for force measurement in connection with a manufacturing machine (10). The arrangement comprises at least two strain gauges (31, 32, 33, 34, 35) or corresponding measuring devices with lower exactness for an indirect measurement by measuring deformation of at least one a frame part (21, 22, 23, 24, 25) or corresponding support structure in connection or near the force measurement target (N) of the manufacturing machine (10).
