Appendix: suggestions for designing Poka-Yokes

Identify objects by characteristics such as:

9 weight
9 dimensions
9 shape

To detect operator deviation or errors, use devices:

9 with physical contact (e.g. contactor, lever)
9 without physical contact: photo-electric cells (transmission, reflection)

To detect deviation from set values, use measurement systems:

9 pressure,
9 temperature
9 electricity (voltage,amperage)
9 vibration
9 rpm
9 data transmission
