Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes VPG calculates the tax provision for interim periods using an estimated annual effective tax rate methodology based on projected full-year pre-tax earnings among the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate with adjustments for discrete items. The effective tax rate was 27.6% and 18.6% for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023, and October 1, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% due to foreign income taxed at different tax rates and changes in our valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The effective tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended October 1, 2022 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% due to foreign income taxed at different tax rates and changes in our valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes imposed by the U.S., various states, and the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. Each jurisdiction establishes rules that set forth the years which are subject to examination by its tax authorities. While the Company believes the tax positions taken on its tax returns for each jurisdiction are supportable, they may still be challenged by the jurisdiction's tax authorities. In anticipation of such challenges, the Company has established reserves for tax-related uncertainties. These liabilities are based on the Company’s best estimate of the potential tax exposures in each respective jurisdiction. It may take a number of years for a final tax liability in a jurisdiction to be determined, particularly in the event of an audit. If an uncertain matter is determined favorably, there could be a reduction in the Company’s tax expense. An unfavorable determination could increase tax expense and could require a cash payment, including interest and penalties. |

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation The Vishay Precision Group, Inc. 2022 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2022 plan") permits issuance of up to 608,000 shares of common stock. At September 30, 2023, the Company had reserved 525,239 shares of common stock for future grants of equity awards (restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), or stock options) pursuant to the 2022 plan. If any outstanding awards are forfeited by the holder or canceled by the Company, the underlying shares would be available for re-grant to others. If shares are withheld for payment of taxes, those shares do not become available for grant under the 2022 plan. On February 28, 2023 and in accordance with their respective employment agreements, VPG’s three executive officers were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs, of which 50% are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate target grant-date fair value of $1.9 million and were comprised of 43,243 RSUs. Fifty percent of these awards will vest on January 1, 2026, subject to the executives’ continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2026, subject to the executives' continued employment and the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative “adjusted free cash flow” and "net earnings goals", each weighted equally. On March 9, 2023, certain non-executive VPG employees were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs. Certain employees received awards, of which 75% are performance-based and certain employees received awards of which 50% are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate grant-date fair value of $0.6 million and were comprised of 14,338 RSUs. The non-performance portion of these awards (twenty-five percent for certain employees and fifty percent for certain employees) will vest on January 1, 2026, subject to the employees' continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2026, subject to the employees' continued employment and the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative earnings and cash flow goals, each weighted equally. On May 24, 2023, and in accordance with the Company's 2017 Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of an aggregate of 13,923 RSUs to the independent board members of the Board of Directors. The awards have an aggregate grant-date fair value of $0.5 million and will vest on the earlier of the 2024 Annual Stockholders Meeting or May 24, 2024, subject to each applicable director's continued service on the Board of Directors. Vesting of equity awards is subject to acceleration under certain circumstances. The amount of compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. VPG determines compensation cost for RSUs based on the grant-date fair value of the underlying common stock. The Company recognizes compensation cost for RSUs that are expected to vest and for which performance criteria are expected to be met. The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recognized (in thousands) : Fiscal quarter ended Nine fiscal months ended September 30, 2023 October 1, 2022 September 30, 2023 October 1, 2022 Share-based compensation expense $ 656 $ 559 $ 1,885 $ 1,583 During the second quarter of 2023, a net adjustment of $0.1 million decreasing share-based compensation expense was recorded based on the evaluation of performance objectives associated with awards granted in 2021 and 2022. It was determined that certain objectives were not likely to be fully met necessitating a reversal of certain compensation expenses associated with those awards. The result of the evaluation of performance objectives as of the end of the third quarter of 2023 was consistent with the prior quarter's evaluation and therefore there was no further adjustment required during the third quarter of 2023. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information VPG reports in three product segments: the Sensors segment, the Weighing Solutions segment, and the Measurement Systems segment. The Sensors reporting segment is comprised of the foil resistor and strain gage operating segments. The Weighing Solutions segment is comprised of specialized modules and systems used to precisely measure weight, force torque, and pressure. The Measurement Systems reporting segment is comprised of highly specialized systems for steel production, materials development, and safety testing. The chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is our chief executive officer. The CODM evaluates each operating segment's performance. The evaluation of the segment's performance is based on multiple performance measures including gross profits, revenues, and operating income, exclusive of certain items. Management believes that evaluating segment performance, excluding items such as restructuring and severance costs, impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, acquisition costs, and other items is meaningful because they relate to occurrences or events that are outside of our core operations, and management believes that the use of these measures provides a consistent basis to evaluate our operating profitability and performance trends across comparable periods.

For the fiscal quarter and nine fiscal months ended September 30, 2023, the change in foreign currency exchange gains and losses during the periods, as compared to the prior year periods, was largely due to exposure to currency fluctuations with the Israeli shekel, the Canadian dollar, the EURO and the British pound. For the fiscal quarter and nine fiscal months ended October 1, 2022, the change in foreign exchange gains and losses during the periods, as compared to the prior year periods, was largely due to exposure to currency fluctuations with the Israeli shekel, the Japanese yen, the Canadian dollar, and the British pound. The change in the dollar-shekel exchange rate resulted in a favorable foreign exchange impact primarily related to the shekel-denominated lease liability for the Sensors facility in Israel. Included in Other for the nine fiscal months ended October 1, 2022 is a $0.2 million loss on the liquidation of two of the Company's European subsidiaries.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a valuation hierarchy of the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions. An asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table provides the financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis (in thousands) : Fair value measurements at reporting date using: Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 September 30, 2023 Assets Assets held in rabbi trusts $ 5,571 $ 85 $ 5,486 $ — December 31, 2022 Assets Assets held in rabbi trusts $ 5,427 $ 53 $ 5,374 $ — The Company maintains non-qualified trusts, referred to as “rabbi” trusts, to fund payments under deferred compensation and non-qualified pension plans. Rabbi trust assets consist primarily of marketable securities, classified as available-for-sale money market funds at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and company-owned life insurance assets. The marketable securities held in the rabbi trusts are valued using quoted market prices on the last business day of the period. The company-owned life insurance assets are valued in consultation with the Company’s insurance brokers using the value of underlying assets of the insurance contracts. The fair value measurement of the cash equivalents held in the rabbi trust are considered a Level 1 measurement and the measurement of the company-owned life insurance assets is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the long-term debt, excluding capitalized deferred financing costs, at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 approximates its carrying value as the revolving debt is reset on a monthly basis based on current market rates, plus a base rate as specified in the debt agreement. The fair value of long-term debt is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term notes payable, and accounts payable. The carrying amounts for these financial instruments reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets approximate their fair values. |

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] | |
Restructuring Costs | Restructuring Costs Restructuring costs reflect the cost reduction programs implemented by the Company. Restructuring costs are expensed during the period in which the Company determines it will incur those costs and all requirements for accrual are met. Because these costs are recorded based upon estimates, actual expenditures for the restructuring activities may differ from the initially recorded costs. If the initial estimates are too low or too high, the Company could be required either to record additional expense in future periods or to reverse part of the previously recorded charges. The Company recorded $1.2 million and $0.2 million of restructuring costs during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, respectively and $1.4 million and $1.3 million of restructuring costs during the nine fiscal months ended September 30, 2023 and October 1, 2022, respectively. Restructuring costs were comprised primarily of employee termination costs, including severance and statutory retirement allowances, and were incurred in connection with various cost reduction programs. The following table summarizes recent activity related to all restructuring programs. The accrued restructuring liability balance as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, is included in Other accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheets (in thousands) : Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 183 Restructuring charges in 2023 1,431 Cash payments (705) Foreign currency translation 2 Balance at September 30, 2023 $ 911 |
