The first section of the book uses a simple, illustrated format to summarize many of the concepts and main features of poka-yoke. The second section shows 240 examples of poka-yoke improvements implemented in Japanese plants.
The book:
- Organizes examples according to the broad issue or problem they address.
- Pinpoints how poka-yoke applies to specific devices, parts and products, categories of improvement methods, and processes.
- Provides sample improvement forms for you to sketch out your own ideas.
Use Poka-yoke in study groups as a model for your improvement efforts. It may be your single most important step toward eliminating defects completely. (For an industrial engineering perspective on how source inspection and poka-yoke can work together to reduce defects to zero, see Shigeo Shingo's Zero Quality Control.)
