production process without “muri”, “mura” and “muda”.
Shorten SOP lead time and Global Standardization
•Basic concept is: Prevent defective parts flow to each
work station, prevent producing defective parts,
eliminate defective parts supply to customers.
•Product design, process design and equipment design
should be guaranteed by production process for
customer’s satisfaction.
