Fool-Proof
Fool-Proof System
When designing a product, a design that prevents the possibility of things going wrong in advance is called a Fool-Proof or idea-Proof design. Proof means to prevent it by sticking to the back of the word, so in literal translation, it becomes an interesting description of the Fool-Froof design
Everyone makes mistakes
Under the premise that everyone makes a mistake, humans should be able to secure safety even if someone makes a mistake, which is the core of the Fool-Proof. Pool-Proof is a combination of adjective Proof, which means that it can resist or prevent Fool, and is literally described as a system that can prevent fools.
It's also known as Ideot-Proof, which is a system that anyone can use, so that you can keep your device or system trustworthy and stable by minimizing the possibility of mistakes or errors.
It is a protection system that prevents and prepares for human errors, which is a malfunction prevention device.
As shown by the original intention, it was originally created in the safety management field and began by installing a cover to prevent hand-cringing accidents on the press or rotating part, but now the intention is extended to ergonomic design, such as finding structural problems or finding irrationality depending on the system.
In other words, in a narrow sense, human mistakes should not lead to danger, and in a broad sense, they are structures and functions that can reduce mistakes themselves.
A factory that doesn't make mistakes, more than that
Fool Proof is a system that prevents anyone who doesn't understand the risks of a machine or equipment from making mistakes, or even if they do, they don't lead to accidents, but it eventually leads to the concept of 'making quality in the process'.
Long-term labor shortages in the manufacturing industry have led to a shortage of skilled workers, and workers' proficiency has led to a difference in productivity and quality. However, with a full-Proof working environment, there is no problem handling equipment even if it is not skilled workers, thereby increasing flexibility in utilizing manpower.
At the same time, the Fool Proof system automates key settings and activates instruction and training effect functions such as task guidance, improving the cycle time for beginners to compensate for differences in productivity based on proficiency.
As for quality, the more faithful it is to the core function of human error prevention, the more it will inevitably lead to quality improvement by minimizing human error.
In addition, production records can be tracked by managing production volume, facilities, and workers, thereby securing an additional function of data utilization, ultimately contributing to securing a good production management system.
Principles and Features Applied to Fool Proof
Several features and principles apply as a fool-Proof is an important means of eliminating human-machine mistakes, improving safety, quality, and securing reliability.
First, it should be as intuitive and simple as possible to make it easy to understand and accessible to anyone using the system and equipment. At the same time, clear guidelines should be used to ensure that there are no mistakes and that correct behavior can be induced. For this, additional automation devices and warning systems are applied. This minimizes uncertainty by considering and excluding variables that may cause errors or failures in advance.
In general, the construction of a Fool-Proof system has been implemented in various ways, from installing an instrument panel that allows workers to directly grasp the state of the machine at the site, to installing a guard, machine control, anti-mobility mechanism, trip mechanism, and recently integrated and linked with ICT technology to identify the site in overall disaster management. Inevitably, there are differences in cost depending on the size and conditions of the installation. However, considering the scale of losses in the event of a problem, it is widely believed that there is no such wise investment. Innovase supports a professional consulting process to understand each company's unique production process and to apply an optimized system in conjunction with each facility. We hope you will meet Innovase's solutions that are customized for various industries with abundant experience and technology accumulated.
Real-time monitoring of process condition data
Automatically store data generated at the same time as real-time monitoring of process condition data. In the event of an NG, send an alarm to the operator/manager to take immediate action. It fundamentally blocks the leakage of defects.
