The MCSP-F-L Fractional Continuous Sampling Plan

Abstract

This paper presents the MCSP-F-L for the concept of a fractional sampling plan that has been developed from the CSP-F-L continuous sampling plan. The attractive feature of the MCSP-F-L is that addition a maximum allowable number of inspected units for prevention long length of inspection at level 2 in the procedure of CSP-F-L plan. The conventional measures of performance for continuous sampling plans have been derived using a Markov Chain model, namely average fraction inspected (AFI), average fraction of total produced accepted on sampling basis (Pa(p)), average outgoing quality (AOQ) and average outgoing quality limit (AOQL). The accuracy of all performance measures has been verified by extensive simulations. The performance measures of the proposed plan were compared with the CSP-F-L plan and the Modified MLP-T-2 plan and a numerical comparison at various levels of incoming quality levels and plan parameters is illustrated in this paper.
