Objective: To guarantee the adequate inspection of raw material and packaging material by the inspection-receipt area by implementing an effective sampling plan that allows reducing the percentage of defective raw material and its impact on the production process. Methodology: It is based on the continuous improvement cycle (PHVA) within which a diagnosis is made to determine the current state of the inspection process, which will allow defining new action strategies aimed at standardizing the inspection process, through the implementation of a sampling plan by variables based on the MIL-STD 414 standard, once implemented, this process is documented, at the same time the integration of suppliers is carried out, through periodic evaluations in order to know the dynamics of the new inspection process and work only with those suppliers committed to the quality of their inputs. Contribution: Reduction of the percentage of defective raw material, from 21% to 13%, which means an acceptable quality level of the materials of 87%.

We investigate the optimal designing of chain sampling plan for the application of normally distributed quality characteristics. The chain sampling plan is one of the conditional sampling procedures and this plan under variables inspection will be useful when testing is costly and destructive. The advantages of this proposed variables plan over variables single sampling plan and variables double sampling plan are discussed. Tables are also constructed for the selection of optimal parameters of known and unknown standard deviation variables chain sampling plan for specified two points on the operating characteristic curve, namely, the acceptable quality level and the limiting quality level, along with the producer’s and consumer’s risks. The optimization problem is formulated as a nonlinear programming where the objective function to be minimized is the average sample number and the constraints are related to lot acceptance probabilities at acceptable quality level and limiting quality level under the operating characteristic curve.

Mean Risk

The common acceptance sampling plan needs to specify two points in the operating characteristic curve, which represent the producers and customers risks, respectively. The points are determined in a subjective way and hence may result in unfairness. This paper presents a new approach, which determines the acceptance sampling plan based on the condition that the risks of producer and customer at acceptable quality level are the same. Another condition is introduced to control the mean risk of producer. The approach can considerably simplify the design of acceptance sampling plan, and is illustrated by an example.

Samples of copper-chromium arsenic compounds (CCA) treated Eucalyptus poles for power transmission were sampledfrom a lot following Military Standard MIL-STD 105D, Single sampling, Tightened Inspection, Acceptable Quality Level(AQL) of 4 as provided for in the South African Standard SABS 754:1994 from lots containing 151-500 poles. Sampleswere randomly selected from a lot. Maximum fiber stresses were evaluated taking into account the actual taper in eachpole. The cantilever loading test was performed on the samples following SABS 754:1994. It was found out that theaverage taper for the poles was smaller than that assumed in the standard due to the different pole growthcharacteristics and environment in Tanzania and that the average modulus of elasticity obtained for the poles was lowerthan the average assumed in SABS 754:1994. The poles also showed excessive deflections at working loads. It isrecommended to the Tanzania Bureau of Standards that although SABS 754:1994 is meant to be used for eucalyptuspoles grown in Southern Africa south of the Sahara that are treated with creosote or CCA there is a need to review it totake into account the actual characteristics of the poles grown in Tanzania where they are normally grown in highlandareas with higher rainfall and colder climates.

True Values

Traditionally the production quality of components is described by “acceptable quality levels” (AQL). Agreements, referring to this principle, determine the acceptance or refusal of batches that have been sample tested. An acceptable quality of level is interpreted as a tolerated limit. In reality true values of quality must be better. An AQL value cannot define a real quality level. Furthermore, increasing requirements for component quality lead to low figures for the permissible amount of faulty devices in batches, and the method of sample testing becomes insufficient.For these reasons it seems to be of major importance to establish a better standard for the definition of quality. The application oriented description of quality data offers a possible solution. A good exchange of experience between supplier and user, based on a close and quality loop, is necessary.For contractual purposes AQL values remain important, but their meaning needs a new interpretation.
