Standard provides for single, double, and

multiple sampling plans.


Provision is also provided for normal,

tightened, or reduced inspection.


Plan is specified by the AQL, and sample-

size code.

Normal inspection is used at the start of

inspection with changes being a function of recent quality history.


Tightened inspection: Generally used when producers recent

quality history has deteriorated.

history has been exceptionally good.


Decision concerning what type of plan to use is

left to the responsible authority.


Nonconformities are classified such as critical,

major

AQL The AQL is the most important part of the

standard since the AQL and sample size dictate the plan used.
AQL is defined as the maximum percent

nonconforming that can be considered satisfactory as a process average.


Satisfactory = Producers risk, Usually 0.05

Sample Size

Different levels of inspection provide

approximately the same protection to the producer, but different protections to the consumer.
Plan provides for special levels to be

used where relatively small sample sizes are necessary and large sampling risks must be tolerated. (S-1, S-2, S-3, S-4)

AQL
What an AQL means is that as long as a supplier maintains his/her process average (% defective) at the assigned AQL or lower, there is a very high probability that shipments from that supplier, when inspected using ASQ Z1.4 sampling plans, will be accepted.

21

AQL
By the same token, there is a very high probability that shipments, when inspected using ASQ Z1.4 sampling plans, will be rejected if a supplier's process average (% defective) remains higher than the assigned AQL.

are produced in a continuing series of lots or batches.


If a sampling plan is desirable for a lot or batch of an

isolated nature, it should be chosen based on the Limiting Quality (LQ) and consumers risk, b.

1. Used for lots that are isolated or mixed or that have an unknown history as far as all parties know.
Lot size and LQ must be known. Nominal values of the LQ are based on

b=0.10

Two Schemes:

2. Used when a vendor is producing a continuous stream of lots and sends one or a few to a customer who will consider them as isolated lots.
Occurs frequently when purchasing

small quantities of raw materials.

Dodge-Romig Tables
A set of inspection tables for lot-by-lot

acceptance sampling by attributes.


Tables are based on Limiting Quality (LQ)

and Average Outgoing Quality Limit (AOQL).


Tables for single and double sampling
Advantage that the plan provides a

minimum amount of inspection for a given inspection procedure.


Desirable for in-house inspection

Dodge-Romig Tables
Limiting Quality LQ

Based on the probability that a particular lot, which has percent nonconforming equal to the LQ, will be accepted. Probability is the consumers risk, = 0.10
LQ plans give assurance that individual lots of poor quality will rarely be accepted.

32
Besterfield: Quality Control, 8th ed.. 2009 Pearson Education, Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458. All rights reserved

Dodge-Romig Tables
Observations about the LQ tables:

As the lot size increases, the relative

sample size decreases.


The tables extend until the process

average is one-half of the LQ.


As the process average increases, a

corresponding increase occurs in the amount inspected.

Dodge-Romig Tables
Average Outgoing Quality Limit AOQL

Applicable when the inspected lot is a

convenient subdivision of a flow of product for materials handling purposes (non-homogeneous)


AOQL plan limits the amount of poor

outgoing quality on an average basis, but gives no assurance on individual lots.

number of previous samples, is determined by analysis of the OC curves for a given sample size.

n and test each for conformance to


specifications.

Procedure:

If the sample has 0 nonconforming units,

accept the lot; if the sample has 2 or more nonconforming units, do not accept the lot; and if the sample has 1 nonconforming unit, it may be accepted provided that there are 0 nonconforming units in the previous

i samples of size n.

Chain Sampling Inspection Plan


Conditions for use of the Chain Sampling Plan:
1. The lot should be one of continuing

series of product that is sampled in substantially the order of production


2. The consumer can normally expect

the lots to be essentially the same quality.

Chain Sampling Inspection Plan


Conditions for use of the Chain Sampling Plan:
3. The consumer has confidence in the

producer not to occasionally send an unacceptable lot that would have the optimum chance of acceptance.
4. The quality characteristic is one that

involves destructive or costly tests.

Sequential Sampling
Used for costly or destructive tests
Subgroup size of 1 item by item plan

Sequential sampling is similar to multiple sampling,

except sequential sampling can, in theory, continue indefinitely.


In practice, the plan is truncated after the number

inspected is equal to three times the number inspected by a corresponding single sampling plan.
Based on the Sequential Probability Ratio Test

Sampling for Continuous Production


Acceptance sampling for continuous

production implies that manufacturing operations do not create lots as part of the normal part of the production process.
Parts are produced by a continuous

process on a conveyor or similar system.

Sampling for Continuous Production


Plans for continuous production consist of

alternating sequences of sampling inspection and screening (100%) inspection.


Plans begin with 100% inspection and

convert to sampling after a stated number of items are free of nonconformities.


Sampling continues until a stated number of

nonconforming units are found, at which time 100% inspection in reinstated.
