The difficulties with human error
Why existing tools are not enough
18
Motorola findings:
...it became evident early in the project that achieving a Cp greater than 2
would go only part of the way. Mistake proofing the design would also
be required ... Mistake proofing the design is an essential factor in
achieving the [total number of defects per unit] goal.

“Be more careful” not effective
26
“The old way of dealing with human error was to scold people, retrain them, and tell them to
be more careful … My view is that you can’t do much to change human nature, and people are
going to make mistakes. If you can’t tolerate them ... you should remove the opportunities
for error.”
“Training and motivation work best when the physical part of the system is well-designed. If
you train people to use poorly designed systems, they’ll be OK for awhile. Eventually, they’ll
go back to what they’re used to or what’s easy, instead of what’s safe.”
“You’re not going to become world class through just training, you have to improve the
system so that the easy way to do a job is also the safe, right way. The potential for human
error can be dramatically reduced.”

Judgment Inspection
36
Involves sorting the defects out of the acceptable product, sometimes referred
to as “inspecting in quality.”
The consensus in modern quality control is that “inspecting in quality” is not an
effective quality management approach.
Judgment inspection does not improve process and should be used only in the
short term.

Point of Origin Inspection
Focus on prevention, not detection. May include: Switches that detect miss-fed
parts
One of the 4 basic elements.
Pins that prevent miss-feeding
Differs from Judgement and Informative:
Warning lights
Catches errors
Sound signals
Gives feedback before processing
No risk of making more defective product
Detect Error
By combining Check and Do, the Doing is
controlled so it cannot be wrong 100% of
the time! Feedback/Corrective Action

Regulatory Description
Function
Warnings Signals mistake but allows process to continue.
Gagging System shuts down. Some resetting action required to
correct the mistake.
Control Methods
Nonresponse Action leads to no response. The process does not crash
nor does it proceed.
Self-correct Process stops. System proposes correction to mistake.
Let’s talk about Process seeks information about what was really
it intended.
Teach me Process associates correct outcomes with incorrect
actions.

Visibility means making relevant parts visible, and effectively displaying system
status.
Feedback means providing an immediate and obvious effect for each action
taken.

Contact Device
An example of a
contact device
using a limit switch.
In this case the
switch makes
contact with a
metal barb sensing
it’s presence. If no
contact is made the
process will shut
down.

Motion-Sequence Method
In order to help operators select the right parts for the right step in a process the
“sequencing” aspect of the motion-step method is used. This is especially helpful when
using multiple parts that are similar in size and shape.
In this example, each step of the machine cycle is wired to an indicator board
and a timer. If each cycle of the machine is not performed within the required
“time” and “sequence”, the indicator light for that step will be turned on and
the machine will stop.
