English

This denotes unnecessary processing which does not add anything to the progress of the production process or the precision of the product.
This is wastefulness which arises due to badly positioned parts of the product or the utensils, when it is necessary to look for the necessary utensils or having to move in order to get them during the process of work. It is a reason why the work might become difficult.

Because of inferior quality the time spent for production is completely wasted and this can become an obstacle to production.
If the product of an inferior quality is not discovered during the production process and is released into the market, it is no longer possible to regain the trust of customers which would be lost because of such inferior product even if you spend money on this.

Easy to grasp description:

Change the point of view.
Change the method.
Change the raw materials.
Return to the starting point.

Stop all sorts of wastefulness.
