    Poka yoke, or mistake proofing, is a technique to eliminate defects by making it impossible to create them in a process. It works on the principle of making it impossible to do something wrong the first time. Mistake proofing can be preventive by stopping errors from occurring, or detective by detecting errors if they happen. Common ways to implement poka yoke include using warnings, controls that stop incorrect next steps, or shutting down machines when errors are detected. The goal is to prevent defects, detect any errors that are not prevented, and reduce the severity of any defects.

    MEANING

    Poka Yoke or Mistake Proofing is a


    technique for eliminating defects
    by making it impossible to create
    them in the process. It is often
    considered the best approach to
    process control.

    www.benchmarksixsigma.com
    It works on the principle -
    "It is good to do it right the first
    time. It is even better to make it
    impossible to do it wrong the first
    time".

    www.benchmarksixsigma.com
    Mistake Proofing can be
    preventive (prevent the error from
    occurring) or detective (detect
    the error if it happens) in nature.
    It is usually implemented in one of
    the following ways :

    www.benchmarksixsigma.com
    1. Warning: audio and visual
    warning either before the error
    occurs or after it has occurred.
    2. Control: errors are impossible;
    even if an error occurs, it is not
    allowed to move to the next
    step.
    3. Shutdown: machine or process
    shutdown when an error is about
    to happen or as soon as an error
    occurs.

    www.benchmarksixsigma.com
    Poka-yoke or Mistake Proofing is
    about using a process or design
    feature and control mechanisms
    to:
    Prevent defects.
    Detect errors early if they are
    not preventable.
    Reduce the severity of the
    defects.

    www.benchmarksixsigma.com
    If not preventable, it is advisable
    to detect errors/defects as early
    as possible because the later they
    are found, the more expensive
    they become, i.e., costs
    associated with them increase
    more materials, labour, overhead,
    and time.

    www.benchmarksixsigma.com
    While implementing poka-yoke
    designs, one must ensure that
    implementation does not open
    new problems that may cause
    defects.
