The main purpose of poka yoke is to reduce defects from mistakes using the simplest and lowest-cost techniques possible. Poka yoke is implemented by using simple objects like fixtures, jigs, gadgets, warning devices or paper systems to prevent people from making mistakes-even if they try to. These objects, known as poka yoke devices, are usually used to stop the manufacturing process and alert the operator if something is about to go wrong.
