Inspection is a necessary but non-value-adding activity whose purpose is to protect the customer from poor quality. We should therefore do as little as possible, upon condition that our inspection plan meets the customer’s requirement. Inspection plans with acceptance numbers of zero (c=0) minimize the sample size, albeit at the cost of a higher producer’s risk of rejecting lots at the specified acceptable quality level (AQL).
This presentation will show how to define c=0 plans whose customer protection is equivalent to that of the corresponding ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 (formerly MIL-STD 105) plan.
Attendees will also receive an Excel spreadsheet that shows the operating characteristic (OC) curve for a c=0 plan and compares it to the original ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 plan. Attendees can replace the example’s specification with their own.
