POKA-YOKE Zero Defect Manufacturing

Course outline

2 days

Duration

2 days

Overview

This course intends to explore the most effective method in ensuring quality. As defects always created from

manufacturing or operation errors, preventing errors is the best mean and approach to eliminate defect. In fact,

Poka Yoke is one of the most effective and efficient method to achieve “Zero Defect” manufacturing and quality.

We will conduct this workshop with examples from the production lines and real life application.

Objectives

After the training session, the participants should be able to:

  • Understand what is Poka Yoke.
  • Apply Poka Yoke concepts where applicable.
  • Apply source inspection techniques in manufacturing processes.
  • Differentiate the various types of quality control systems such as SPC, Inspection, Poka Yoke.
  • Understand and expose to different function of Poka Yoke such as orientation etc.
