A single control unit with
poka-yoke was provided to ensure that the customer's operators do not make any mistake while connecting the same.
Formats are designed according to the "
poka-yoke" principle to prevent parts from being incorrectly assembled.
Another Lean Manufacturing technique is called
Poka-Yoke, which means mistake proofing.
Six Sigma specialists will tell you that "
poka-yoke" or "mistake proofing" controls, such as those that make it impossible to open more than one drawer at a time on a filing cabinet (preventing tip-overs), can be relatively inexpensive, but require willingness to consider alternative methods of control than we are most familiar with.

The "detect and stop" element consists of visual standards and mistake-proofing techniques like
Poka-yoke (Drew et al., 2004).
"It's the perfect
poka-yoke control to reduce defects, rework, and redundant inspections and testing."

Poka-yoke" es una tecnica de calidad desarrollada por el ingeniero japones Shigeo Shingo que puede traducirse literalmente como "a prueba de errores", siendo habitual su aplicacion en el campo industrial mediante la introduccion de mecanismos que ayudan a prevenir y a evitar los errores antes de que sucedan (Hirano, 1990).
We use analysis results to drive to failure root cause and determine preventative corrective actions via design and
poka-yoke in order to ensure our products have the highest level of quality and reliability built into the design prior to entering production.
One approach is the use of "
poka-yoke" or mistake-proofing to improve product and manufacturing quality.
