Seiton Practices

Using time and labor for searching is

quite troublesome for the operator.
This will cause untimely completion
of the things.Also,if the
sophisticated instruments and the
hard blades are piled up, then it
becomes the cause of accident.Let us
start diligently keeping tools and

falling or stumbling.

Effect on Cost and Delivery

All the parts and tools are being arranged in parallel and perpendicular fashion. Thus it is easy to
understand what is where? So, it saves both time and labor to make search for the things required and
in turn increases the Work Efficiency.

Let us devise the way to always maintain the

Seiri*Seiton*and Seisou to implement the 「Seiketsu」

It is not possible to produce the high quality products without providing the proper
arrangements of both tools and machineries and without creating the environment in
which employees can feel good and comfortable to work。
 Seiketsu Practices

Various tools or devices are available to maintain the principle of Seiton that is Seiri,
Seiton and Seisou. 「Stratified Indication」is one of the examples.。This is defined
as first classifying the things and deciding their place. After that using the indication
in such a way that any person can know the location by just seeing the indication。
Suppose, you have kept something at a place without having the indication,then,
that might be considered as the NG part.If you find something like this kept
over the unidentified location then you must inform this to your senior without
judging by yourselves.
 Glimpses of Seiketsu
There is an indication on the product boxes and both sides
of the trolleys.Thus, product boxes are always kept on the
specified place and this in turn helps in maintaining the
Seiton.
The waste produced during work is in the dust
beans. This allows to maintain the cleanliness
state without allowing the scattering of waste.

A partition is made in the drawers depending upon the shape of the tools。
This allows keeping the tools either in parallel or perpendicular fashion.
 It is defined as maintaining the state in which all the
Shitsuke four-Seiri*Seiton*Seisou*and Seiketsu are followed

If you have achieved the state in
which you can maintain
Seiri*Seiton*Seisou and Seiton without
putting much burden on your mind
then……
You can achieve high standards of
cleaning( Seiton),and a culture
develops automatically in which it
is easy to work and produce high
quality products.

Let us make intentional efforts to

follow continuously the principles of
Seiri*Seiton*Seisou*and Seiketsu before
it becomes a usual practice。
