Hi all!
My first post on the forum. Nice to meet you!
Anyway, I am in the manufacturing industry for medical products, and would like to seek clarification on a few issues.
Firstly, regarding new production introduction, the management has tasked me to do 100% inspection on finished goods, the reason being that the process is unstable and they told me that only in a stable process can I resort to sampling. By the way, our company is currently using the ANSI/ASQ Z1.4-2008 Level I at AQL of 0.65%. I always thought that the inspection should be independent of the process stability. In fact, if the process is so unstable, I should be able to pick it out via sampling. Therefore, this criteria of having a stable process before I can use such sampling tools boggles me. Clarification is really welcome here.
Secondly, Level I samping seems to be abit lax here, I hear that most industries are currently using at least Level II sampling standard. Moreover, I am in the medical manufacturing industry. Any input will be great!
Lastly, on a specific note, let's say I want to find out the confidence level I have if I find no defects on a size 50 sample from a daily batch of 250 units. How do I go about it? AQL is at 0.65% as well.
Thanks alot for any help! Really appreciated!
