since 1969 Shingō got involved in some actions in Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) for the reduction of set-up time (change of dies) of pressing machines which took him to the formulation of a specific technique based on operational analysis‚ which shortened set-up times from 1 to 2 hours (or even half a day) per each exchange of dies to a rapid setting of a few minutes. The method spread out under the English denomination Single Minute Exchange of Die‚ abbreviated as SMED. Besides‚ Shingo seems to

Just in Time Inventory System Just in Time (JIT) manufacturing is a production and inventory control system in which materials are purchased and units are produced only as needed to meet actual customer demand (Steyn‚ 2010). The basic principle of JIT is that every component needed in the manufacturing system arrives just in time for it to be used. Stock holding facilities are not required with this system because the needed products arrive when needed. Automobile industries‚ like Toyota Motor

stage"[Shingo‚ 1986‚ p. 82] According to Shingo‚ there is a close relationship between defect and error. However‚ an error goes through a long process to become a defect. During this long process many action can be made to prevent the error to become a defect. Shingo and Deming found in this long process a chance to correct the errors made at the production or managerial level. They made up a system called “Poka-Yoke”‚ a Japanese name for mistake-proofing.

Poka Yoke Operations Management Sep‚ 2013 Poka Yoke (Mistake Proofing) Poka Yoke is a quality management concept developed by a Matsushita manufacturing engineer named Shigeo Shingoto to prevent human errors from occurring in the production line. Poka yoke (pronounced “poh-kah yoh-kay”) comes from two Japanese words – “yokeru” which means “to avoid”‚ and “poka” which means “inadvertent errors.” Thus‚ poka yoke more or less translates to “avoiding inadvertent errors”.

POKAYOKE Poka-yoke was invented by shigeo shingo in the 1960’s. the term poka-yoke comes from the japenese words “poka” (inadvertent mistake) and “yoke” (prevent) the essential idea of poka yoke is to design your process so that mistakes are impossible or atleast easily detected and corrected. It is a simple principle that can lead to massive savings. In the production processes workers commit inadvertent errors. Shigeo shingo developed ‘mistake proofing’ and source inspection system that‚ employees

that helps an equipment operator avoid (yokeru) mistakes (poka). Its purpose is to eliminate product defects by preventing‚ correcting‚ or drawing attention to human errors as they occur.[1] The concept was formalised‚ and the term adopted‚ by Shigeo Shingo as part of the Toyota Production System.[2][3] It was originally described as baka-yoke‚ but as this means "fool-proofing" (or "idiot-proofing") the name was changed to the milder poka-yoke. More broadly‚ the term can refer to any behavior-shaping

POKA-YOKE One of the common quality concepts in statistics that can be used in continuous improvement is Poka- Yoke‚ which means “mistake proofing.” Poka-Yoke‚ pronounced (POH-kah YOH-kay) and developed by Japanese industrial engineer Shigeo Shingo in the early 1960s‚ uses devices‚ methods‚ or inspections in order to avoid machine error or simple human error. There are two main types of poka-yokes: • prevention-based poka-yokes and • Detection-based poka-yokes. Prevention-based poka-yokes

critically evaluate whether the ‘just in time’ approach to production is still a good strategy and whether it has any implications. The manufacturing approach ‘just in time’ was first established in japan during the mid-1970 by Taichi Ohno and Shigeo Shingo at the Toyota Motor Company. Toyota was one of the first companies to input this approach to streamline its manufacturing and production to minimise the retention of raw materials which enable the company to be more liquid (Rajab Abdullah Hokoma
