ABSTRACT


In this paper, a simple method is developed to find the unique combination (i, f) that will meet the average outgoing quality limit (AOQL) requirement, while also minimizing the average fraction inspected (AFI) for a CSP-M plan with specified number of inspection levels when the process average p(> AOQL) is known.


Keywords: Multi-Level Continuous Sampling Plan (CSP-M Plan), Average Outgoing Quality (AOQ), Average Outgoing Quality Limit (AOQL), Average Fraction Inspected (AFI)
