What is Understanding Jidoka in Lean Manufacturing about?
The document discusses the concept of Jidoka, which means autonomation. Jidoka is a Lean improvement tool where a process is designed to stop automatically when something goes wrong to prevent defects. It was first used in 1896 on a loom that would stop when a defective thread was detected. Jidoka allows for built-in quality at each process step so operators do not need to constantly monitor machines.
