Here is a great introduction to the remarkable mind of Shigeo
Shingo, indisputably one of the great forces in manufacturing. In
this book Dr. Shingo describes his approach to manufacturing
improvements, developed and refined over the course of a brilliant
career. He called it the Scientific Thinking Mechanism (STM).
"The Sayings of Shigeo Shingo "leads you through the five stages
of STM, with appropriate examples taken from notes Dr. Shingo
collected during his consulting trips to American and Japanese
plants. It shows how, in many cases, the most brilliant ideas are
often so simple they're overlooked. Or they're dismissed because
they seem ridiculous:
A Japanese plant, after first rejecting the idea as "too silly,"
finds that unhulled rice is ideal for smoothing the rough surfaces
on pressure-formed ebonite switchesGranville-Phillips, in Boulder,
Colorado, reduced defects to zero in one process after Dr. Shingo
suggested illuminating circuit boards from belowto reduce errors
involved in the insertion of diodes and resistors
"The Sayings of Shigeo Shingo" is must reading for plant
managers and engineers. It formalizes the powerful and creative way
of thinking that Shingo himself used time and again to overcome
problems that seemed virtually insurmountable.
