Book Description

The Zero Quality control system (ZQC) is a mistake-proofing approach that prevents defects by monitoring process conditions at the source and correcting errors that would cause defects. In this breakthrough approach, mistake-proofing devices called poka-yoke are used to check and give feedback about each product or operation in the process, not just a sample. This package helps you begin the education process by establishing the foundation to reach this goal: placing powerful and proven improvement tools such as ZQC and mistake-proofing in the hands of your company's entire workforce. A strong complement to your training on mistake-proofing.

The Learning Package does the following:

  • Provides the foundation for launching a full-scale implementation process
  • Encourages workers to get actively involved in their own learning process
  • Provides immediate practical skills for participants
  • Offers a flexible curriculum that adapts to unique audience requirements
  • Furnishes the tools to develop your own in-house education program for operators.

    SHIPPING NOTICE: Learning Packages carry a $15 shipping charge.

    • Leader's guide
    • 5 copies of Mistake-Proofing for Operators

    5.0 out of 5 stars Simple and straight forward for beginners, March 11, 2007
    Whether you start with JIT/Lean or Quick Response Manufacturing, you need to learn some simple tools helping you with the process improvement after any process analyze. Many books about operations management will teach you the interaction of workstations and the parameters influencing the performance of a workstation, line or even a factory. Furthermore good operations books will give you the insights how to analyze the performance of a system. What often misses (which is Ok), is to provide the knowledge, e.g. if lot size reduction will bring a huge improvement for cycle-time etc., how to do this? Most of the books of this series exactly deal with this questions and present some methods that work and will simplify your life reading more sophisticated literature about this issue later on.

    All the books of the productivity press series were a great help to me. The following books of this series provided a good start about:

    - SMED: how to reduce change-over time and to make small lot sizes happen
    - TPM: how to improve machine availability and breakdown variability
    - ZQC: overcoming the problem of other quality methods, that only measure what was done but w/o pre-active prevention for rework/ scrap (Six-Sigma, SPC etc. are more complicated and not pre-active..)

    The series includes as well 5s and Pull Production etc. Especially the 3 titles mentionned above are a good introduction to related fiels. As your experiences grows, you might read more specific books about the subject later on. The data collection, e.g. for machine availability and variation etc., is not the objective of this book, but the method itself, how to to do it.

    For beginners, 5 stars is fair enough.

    Best Regards,
    Oliver
