Mistake Proofing

Mistake Proofing Overview

Mistake proofing is a technique for eliminating errors. It is based upon the premise that it is good to do something right the first time; it is even better to make it impossible to do it wrong the first time. The idea is to make it impossible to make a mistake. You may also hear the term, Poka-Yoke or Error Proofing applied to mistake proofing.

The objectives of this article are to provide participants with the information so they can:

• Understand the difference between errors and defects;
• Understand how defects originate
• Recognize the elements of source inspection and its role in defect elimination;
• Identify key mistake proofing devices;
• Show mistake proofing as a proactive tool, and;
• Show how mistake proofing fits into the Lean Six Sigma methodology.

 Principles for Mistake Proofing

Mistake proofing is rooted in a deep respect for the intelligence of workers. It is a principle that seeks to take over repetitive tasks or actions thereby freeing a worker’s time for creative and value-adding activities. Its objective is zero defects.

There are several examples of mistake proofing in everyday life. Consider automatic sinks and toilets in public rest rooms. They are designed to turn on and off without having to think about them. Automatic seat belts work the same way. All one needs to do is sit in the car and turn on the key and a shoulder harness moves into place. Mistake proofing focuses on eliminating the source of errors.

Errors vs. Defects

Errors are not the same as defects. Errors cause defects. Defects are many times the result of errors.

Walk into any public restroom and you are likely to see toilets that have not been flushed or sinks, with water running freely. In many cases, the hot water has been turned off in the sinks to conserve the costs of energy for heating the water. In these circumstances, what are the defects and what are the errors?

The defects are the filthy toilets and the running water. These are non-conformities in the process. They do not meet the pre-determined criteria that the public and management have established for a good restroom. As such, they must be corrected. If not corrected, they will cost management, both in terms of dollars and customers.

Hot water that runs unchecked involves a significant fuel expense. Filthy toilets discourage the public from returning to the business.

What is management to do?

One solution is to get out of the business. Many public places take this approach. Their restrooms are closed to the public. A modified version of this solution is to limit services to limit expenses. This is the approach taken when management turns off hot water. The hope is that the customer does not miss it. Another solution is to inspect for defects frequently and correct them when found. Yet this solution is only effective if its cost is less than or equal to the cost of the defect. Most often it is a stop gap measure that provides fewer defects but at greater costs. Mistake proofing offers a third solution.

The question is, can the error that causes the defect be minimized? Can it be eliminated?

The error in our public rest room example is human forgetfulness. People forget to operate the equipment. So, we build in an automated solution that takes care of this operation for them. They can no longer make the error; the defect is removed.

There are five general reasons why errors occur:

• Procedures are incorrect or non-existent. They do not fit the task, the environment, the equipment, the materials, the measurement, or the labor resources.
• There is excessive variation in the process
• There is excessive variation in the raw materials
• Measuring devices are inaccurate
• Human error

The last item on our list, human error, can be further broken down into ten categories:

• Forgetfulness, nor not concentrating;
• Misunderstanding, or jumping to conclusions without having all the information;
• Identification, or viewing the situation incorrectly (perhaps it is too far away);
• Training, or lack of it;
• Willful errors where the human ignores the rules;
• Inadvertent errors involving distraction or fatigue;
• Slowness, or delays in judgment;
• Lack of standards;
• Surprises when something does not go as planned, and;
• Intentional errors such as sabotage.

This list should give some food for thought. There are many things that contribute to human error. Among them are adjustments, multiple tasking, infrequent tasks, lack of standards, and repetition that is too rapid for the individual.

Such things can be controlled. Indeed, a great deal of planning and expense is involved in trying to do so. Yet errors still happen. A traditional approach to manufacturing and service industries is to think they are unavoidable. People are only human. Everything varies, and you can’t plan for all contingencies. The traditionalist would say that everything must be inspected to control the inevitable defect. (Remember that defect is the result of error.)

The Lean Six Sigma view, however, differs. Many errors can be eliminated, not all of them, to be sure, but many. If many can be eliminated, and many more can be reduced, and if the focus of the efforts is in the Vital Few rather than the Trivial Many, then the need for inspection can be reduced or eliminated. Inspection for defects does not capture all of them. A Lean Six Sigma approach makes the User the inspector, and it controls the errors in the processes to assure that the user is satisfied with their inspections. Inspection happens in a Lean Six Sigma process; it is an inspector for error.

Source Inspection

The chart below illustrates the traditional inspection process that focuses on finding the defect. Here the inspector stands at the end of the line and feeds back information to its various positions.

Mistake proofing provides immediate feedback at each step, prior to the creation of a defect. Detection is finding an error after it has occurred.

Indeed, action can be taken before errors occur. Immediate feedback and immediate proximity to the potential error allows for better Prediction and Prevention.

Mistake Proofing On the Job

Shutdown: Effective in both prediction and detection. An example of a shutdown device is a camera that will not function when there is not enough light to take a picture. The meter predicts the picture will not take, and it shuts down. Some clothes dryers shut down when they detect an overheating situation.

Control: A control device can make pending errors impossible. Erroneous items cannot be used in the process. When gas stations introduced unleaded gasoline, the nozzle on the leaded pump was designed to be too big to fit into an unleaded tank, thereby preventing error. A fruit orchard assures that only the biggest apples pass on to its customers by passing the apples through a sizer. Apples that are too small fall through and are sent to a discount outlet.

Warning: A warning device predicts when something is about to go wrong. It can also sound immediately when something does go wrong. Seat belt buzzers are warning devices used for prediction. Smoke detectors detect a hazardous situation.

Contact Methods: Contact with a part highlights errors. Electrical outlets have been mistake proofed to assure proper polarity. It is impossible to put a plug in an outlet incorrectly.

Fixed Value Methods: Errors are detected through counting. Many boxes should be shipped with four different hazardous material warning labels. When labels were on separate rolls, errors in shipping often occurred. By placing all labels on a common roll and aligning them for easy reference, the worker easily knew when a label was missed.

Motion Step Methods: Detect errors by motion, or the lack of it. Seven screws in various sizes were inserted in the final assembly of a CD-ROM drive. Often a screw would be forgotten. The seven Different screws were put into bins with photo-electric switches. When a screw is removed, the beam is broken. The part cannot move on to the next operation until the beam is broken on all seven bins.

As you begin to recognize the techniques and methods that apply to mistake proofing, it is easy to see how the principal has been applied. Limit switches are commonly applied to assure that machines are not operated beyond their design capacity or that they are operated in a safe manner. Guide pins are routinely used to assure that jigs and molds go together in the correct configuration. At the end of this module are eight mistake proofing challenges. How can the problems be solved?

When You Can’t Mistake Proof

Some strategies can be employed to minimize mistakes, or make them easier to detect. Consider the following:

• Colors and color coding. Credit card receipts are almost always designed so the customer gets the yellow copy and the merchant gets the white copy.
• Use of shapes. Stop signs are always octagonal.
• Auto-detection. Word processors come with spell checkers. These reduce errors considerably.
• Make it easy to do it right. Use checklists. Have effective data collection forms that follow the process. Design work flows with fewer hand-offs.

5 Steps to Mistake Proofing

There are five steps to mistake proofing:

1. Identify problems. Look at customer returns, defective parts analyses, and error reports. Do a FMEA.

2. Prioritize problems. Look at problem frequency and cost. Identify wasted materials, rework time, detection time, and detection cost. Consider inspection costs.

3. Seek out the root cause. Drive down until you truly understand the source of the error. Correct mistakes at their source.

4. Create solutions. Make it impossible to do it wrong. Perform a cost benefit analysis to see how long the investment in the solution will take to repay itself. Be creative in solution generation.

5. Measure the results. Have errors been eliminated and what is the impact?

There is no doubt that mistake proofing offers several advantages when it is designed into the product. No formal training programs are required to implement it or to use the devices. It eliminates many inspection operations, and it relieves operators from repetitive tasks that take away from their creativity and value added activities. It results in defect-free work. It provides immediate action when problems do arise.

Mistake Proofing Challenges

Look at the following situations. What mistake proofing methods or techniques might you consider applying?

1. ATM customers complain that they never know the right way to insert their ATM card, and it usually takes a couple of tries to get it right.

1. A local bottling company wants to make sure that all bottles are filled with exactly the right amount of soda.

1. A large pharmaceutical company is trying to develop a way to assure elderly people living alone take their prescription medicine at the right time and in the correct dosage.

1. A manufacturer of home power tools wants to make sure that customers are wearing eye and hand protection before using their equipment.

1. A consumer electronic company has had several customer complaints lately that their instructions were missing from their product.

1. Nine different tools are needed to change a jig and die. Often, in the middle of changeover, the set-up operator realizes a tool is missing and has to stop to look for the tool.

1. An easy-to-assemble furniture manufacturer has received several complaints about holes not being tapped for all screws. Because the furniture is made from hardwood, the customers have to drill the holes themselves.

1. A contact lens solution manufacturer received complaints from distributors that some customers found empty boxes with their shipments. The company wants to make sure no more empty boxes are shipped.

Proof of Knowledge $73.28 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In cryptography, a proof of knowledge is an interactive proof in which the prover succeeds convincing a verifier that it knows something. What it means for a machine to know something is defined in terms of computation. A machine knows something, if this something can be computed, given the machine as an input. As the program of the prover does not necessarily spit out the knowledge itself (as is the case for zeroknowledge proofs) a machine with a different program, called the knowledge extractor is introduced to capture this idea. We are mostly interested in what can be proven by polynomial time bounded machines. In this case the set of knowledge elements is limited to a set of witnesses of some language in NP. Let x be a language element of language L in NP, and W(x) the set of witnesses for x that should be accepted in the proof. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.

Baby Proof $7.99 From the author of the smash hits Something Borrowed and Something Blue comes a novel that explores the question: is there ever a deal-breaker when it comes to true love? First comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes . . . a baby carriage? Isn't that what all women want?   Not so for Claudia Parr. And just as she gives up on finding a man who feels the same way, she meets warm, wonderful Ben. Things seem too good to be true when they fall in love and agree to buck tradition with a satisfying, child-free marriage. Then the unexpected occurs: one of them has a change of heart. One of them wants children after all.   This is the witty, heartfelt story about what happens to the perfect couple when they suddenly want different things. It's about feeling that your life is set and then realizing that nothing is as you thought it was--and that there is no possible compromise. It's about deciding what is most important in life, and taking chances to get it. But most of all, it's about the things we will do--and won't do--for love.

Propositional Proof System $82.85 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In propositional calculus and proof complexity a propositional proof system (pps), also called a CookReckhow propositional proof system, is system for proving classical propositional tautologies. Formally a pps is a polynomialtime function P whose range is the set of all propositional tautologies (denoted TAUT). If A is a formula, then any x such that P(x) = A is called a Pproof of A. In general, a proof system for a language L is a polynomialtime function whose range is L. Thus, a propositional proof system is a proof system for TAUT. Sometimes the following alternative definition is considered: a pps is given as a proofverification algorithm P(A, x) with two inputs. If P accepts the pair (A, x) we say that x is a Pproof of A. P is required to run in polynomial time, and moreover, it must hold that A has a Pproof if and only if it is a tautolog Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.

Rabbit-Proof Fence (DVD) $14.38 Set in Australia in 1931, RABBIT-PROOF FENCE tells the story of a government policy that required "half-caste" children (whose mothers were Aboriginal and whose fathers were white) to be taken from their homes by the authorities to be trained to work as servants. Based on the true story of Molly Craig, Philip Noyce`s film of small gestures and few words follows the odyssey of three young girls who escaped from the government`s training facility and, using the country`s long stretches of rabbit-proof fences as their guide, walked 1500 miles to get back home.Told squarely from Molly`s point of view, RABBIT-PROOF FENCE also highlights the Australian government`s treatment of Aboriginies by A.O. Neville (Kenneth Branagh), the legal guardian of the country`s indigenous people. His plan to "breed out" the Aboriginal blood of the half-castes is marked by a cool calculation and moral blindness that stands out in sharp contrast to Molly`s spiritual and intuitive relationship to the people and places she encounters on her journey.

Proof Theory and Automated Deduction $189.58 Proof Theory and Automated Deduction is written for finalyear undergraduate and firstyear postgraduate students. It should also serve as a valuable reference for researchers in logic and computer science. It covers basic notions in logic, with a particular stress on proof theory, as opposed to, for example, model theory or set theory; and shows how they are applied in computer science, and especially the particular field of automated deduction, i.e. the automated search for proofs of mathematical propositions. We have chosen to give an indepth analysis of the basic notions, instead of giving a mere sufficient analysis of basic and less basic notions. We often derive the same theorem by different methods, showing how different mathematical tools can be used to get at the very nature of the objects at hand, and how these tools relate to each other. Instead of presenting a linear collection of results, we have tried to show that all results and methods are tightly interwoven. We believe that understanding how to travel along this web of relations between concepts is more important than just learning the basic theorems and techniques by rote. Audience: The book is a valuable reference for researchers in logic and computer science. Author: GoubaultLarrecq, Jean/ MacKie, Ian/ GoubaultLarrecq, J.

Proof through the Night $12.95 Carols floating across no-man's-land on Christmas Eve 1914; solemn choruses, marches, and popular songs responding to the call of propaganda ministries and war charities; opera, keyboard suites, ragtime, and concertos for the left handall provided testimony to the unique power of music to chronicle the Great War and to memorialize its battles and fallen heroes in the first post-Armistice decade. In this striking book, Glenn Watkins investigates these variable roles of music primarily from the angle of the Entente nations' perceived threat of German hegemony in matters of intellectual and artistic accomplishmenta principal concern not only for Europe but also for the United States, whose late entrance into the fray prompted a renewed interest in defining America as an emergent world power as well as a fledgling musical culture. He shows that each nation gave "proof through the night"ringing evidence during the dark hours of the warnot only of its nationalist resolve in the singing of national airs but also of its power to recall home and hearth on distant battlefields and to reflect upon loss long after the guns had been silenced. Watkins's eloquent narrative argues that twentieth-century Modernism was not launched full force with the advent of the Great War but rather was challenged by a new set of alternatives to the prewar avant-garde. His central focus on music as a cultural marker during the First World War of necessity exposes its relationship to the other arts, national institutions, and international politics. From wartime scores by Debussy and Stravinsky to telling retrospective works by Berg, Ravel, and Britten; from "La Marseillaise" to "The Star-Spangled Banner," from "It's a Long Way to Tipperary" to "Over There," music reflected society's profoundest doubts and aspirations. By turns it challenged or supported the legitimacy of war, chronicled misgivings in miniature and grandiose formats alike, and inevitably expressed its sorrow at the final price exacted by the Great War. Proof through the Night concludes with a consideration of the post-Armistice period when, on the classical music front, memory and distance forged a musical response that was frequently more powerful than in wartime.
