Toyota Kaizen Clip

[victorianoroque]

I did not think they would build him that in one visit holy crap, hidden gem

[alexandercuskelly]

Anyone else here because of their business work?

[johnlammergeier]

This is serious stuff, I do these kind of things at my work where Kaizen is not even known, and people around me think I am some kind of wizard after a few days. This stuff is true power folks.

[js-wqzy]

Preconceived or not, making such a change to a workstation so easily and quickly is brilliant.

[xxqqff]

Having a regularly scheduled quota of Kaizen is an amazing idea that can prevent stagnation and squeeze out ideas from all corners and perspectives.

[rebekkaherrington]

This video was so inspiring that I ask my husband to watch it with me, then I sent him to Home Depot so we can Kaizen our house

[frikkied]

That quip about spare parts not being JIT was pretty sharp

[Optimistprime.]

I work at a toyota plant and the stretching thing is only for TV shows and tourists. Kaizen is real but often times people change good things into bad things and then back again

[leansixsigmagroep]

Great clip and interesting look into the process of Toyota and how they apply Kaizen. Thank you for sharing!

dispenser that has screw in right position, drill bit is magnetized, now you can have the screw automatically placed and you can go in with the screw without even having to place it on

[quackstk]

Can add a slight magnetic property to the glove so that the screws will not spill.

The Japanese are very wise people. There is no doubt about it and that is the reason why the brand value perspective Toyota is the most expensive among car brands

[brandoncarter]

Federal government is in desperate need of Kaizen

[leslienfor]

1:20_You are not supposed to have spare parts, that not got this? hahaha

[pcbon]

yeah, new kaizen being invented (from idea to tool) in a day, that's impressive!

[cjcj]

Coming up with ways to do things better is one thing, being able to implement a working solution that fast is just as impressive! Be cool to know how much 1sec of savings equaled in cost per day/yr :)

A few people in here commenting on robotics taking over from manual workers but the only thing that determines if a machine or a human gets the job is if the human can do the task quicker than a machine or, if a machine can’t cost effectively or possibly be made to do the task in place of them. That’s takt time.

Hopeful first month employee:
I believe the screws could be easier to pick and screw.
Toyota kaizen QA: Oi! We believe you arhhhhe incompetent! Oi! Kaizennnn reeee....jected! Try again oh next month you... Fired!
Toyota kaizen OPS manager: *fist bump* we so kaizen bro
*One month later*
Employee arrives one morning to find a new auto-feeding screw driver set with a belt feed system to work non stop for 16 hour shifts. When he goes to complain to his Team leader this later one throws him a set of keys to a new supra parked outside and says. "Welcome to Toyota kid!" And they high five in the air as the frame stills and a nostalgic 80's montage song fades away in the background.
*Don't about Baby dont you dont

(Yes I got the job)
