I'm hoping someone here can provide a solution. My problem is that I receive large lots of components from suppliers. Generally upwards of 35,000 pcs per lot. I consume these 35,000 pcs in anywhere from 3 days to 5 days. The AQL Sampling Plan I have tells me (at 1.0) to sample upwards of 60 pcs per lot. I have to measure from 15 to 30 dimensions per part to determine if the part is in spec or not. This is super time consuming and the personnel have enough time to do it.
Example: If I receive a shipment today, 14 different part numbers, all large lots. My AQL says that I should inspect 60-90 depending on which lot I select. When I calculate it all out.... I would have to inspect 14 x 75 (avg) = over 1000 pieces. Each of those pieces have 5-10 dims to measure and document. I don't have the time or resources to inspect at that level.
I continue to find bad components in my processes and I know I need to do something. HELP PLEASE!!!
