Jidoka, well explained ..


What is jidoka

Jidoka is a Japanese term that refers to the concept of "automation with a human touch" in manufacturing and production. It is a key principle of the Toyota Production System (TPS), also known as Lean Manufacturing.

Jidoka emphasizes the importance of stopping production when a problem is detected, so it can be addressed and prevented from happening again in the future. The aim of jidoka is to increase efficiency and quality by combining the benefits of automation with the problem-solving ability of human workers.
