"Aerospace and Medicine... Partners in Science"
NKB, a Minnesota Corporation, was incorporated in October, 1987 as a
research and development company specializing in the design,
development, and fabrication of precision measurement instruments
(sensors) for medical, aerospace, and tribology applications. NKB
continues to offer custom design and prototyping of measurement
devices and systems for specific applications.
As a result of many years of development and testing, NKB now has
available an extensive product line of medical, aerospace, and
tribosenz instruments and systems, encompassing the fundamental
principles expressed in the statement below:
| The science of observation and measurement has an indispensable
role in contemporary learning, "all that we know about
materials - our bodies, our universe, subatomic as well as chemical
and microscopic phenomena - we have learned through the science of
observation and measurement. The human biological sensor system
functions as a group of sensors through which we receive information
about our physical world, in the form of sight, smell, touch,
sensitivity, sound, temperature and the like. In instrument
engineering, sensors are specifically designed and fabricated to be
sensitive to one or more phenomena and are used to provide
information to us concerning the inner workings of our creations,
whether they be machines or processes." In the selection of
sensors, however, it is critical that valid measurement instruments
are selected. That is, those that have been designed and calibrated
for use in the environment and within the range of loading
conditions specified for the given test.
