Jidoka Chapter 5
- automation with a human touch
The loom had a function that was unique at the time:
textile production stopped automatically when a thread broke.
This made it immediately possible to identify, analyze, and eliminate the problem that had arisen.
The concept was later termed jidoka,
which means, 'automation with a human touch'.
Machines developed 'human intelligence' in the sense that they could identify a problem automatically
Chapter 10
- visibility
jidoka is about creating a visible and clear picture
so that anything that happens to, hinders or disturbs the flow can be identified immediately
Every player can see and hear and is aware of everything that is happening all the time.
Based on this clear picture they can make decisions about how, together, they can score a goal.
Quote: visualization allows improvement
- reference to Scania Production System (SPS)
Instead of just-in-time and jidoka, the core of SPS consists of four principles, the objectives of which are almost identical to just-in-time and jidoka, except that they are conceptualized differently.
