Abstract

In the industrial sector, statistical quality control plays a major role in monitoring and maintaining the standard quality of products. Acceptance sampling plans are one of the traditional methods of Statistical Quality control, and sampling inspections help prevent the production or purchase of bad products. The decision is made regarding whether to accept or reject the corresponding lot based on the observed lifetimes of the test items or the number of failures during a predetermined testing period of time, taking into account both the producer's and consumer's risks is known as Reliability Acceptance Sampling plan. This paper deals with a Special Type Double Sampling Plan based on Truncated Lifetest for percentile using Exponentiated Generalized Frechet Distribution. The minimum sample size is essential to ensure the specified lifetime is provided at the consumer’s risk. The Operating Characteristic values, Operating Characteristic Curve of the sampling plan as well as minimum ratio of producer’s risk are computed. Tables and results are explained with appropriate examples.

Introduction

In modern technological world, customers are more expertise in the reliable quality products. Assume that a producer sends a consumer a shipment of components known as a lot. The inspection samples have been taken from the lot, and the number of defective items will be counted. The selection of the sample size 'n' and acceptance number 'c' are the basic criterion of acceptance sampling plan. If number of defectives less than or equal to acceptance number, the entire lot will be accepted. If the number of defectives greater than acceptance number, the lot will be rejected. In some situations, the experimenters might take a time while before recording the necessary number of failures. As a result, sampling plan use time-truncated life tests to make decisions quickly. Time-truncated life tests have a defined number of failures and experiment duration. This approach is excellent for reducing the cost and time of a submitted lot's inspection. In acceptance sampling based on truncated life tests have the following assumptions: (i) the units are destructible or are degraded after the life test, and (ii) there are several distributions that model the product life reasonably well. The main problem in acceptance sampling plan is finding the minimum sample size, Operating Characteristic function and producer's risk exceeds the specified and true lifetime of product. In this paper focuses Special Type Double sampling plan based on truncated life test using Exponentiated Generalized Frechet Distribution. Special Type Double sampling plan is a special cases of Double sampling plan. Schilling and Neubauer proposed a concept of Single Sampling Plan with a zero acceptance number is extremely helpful in the field of compliance and safetyrelated testing. A lot by lot special type double sampling strategy is employed as an alternative to the Single Sampling Plan in order to avoid the problems with smaller acceptance numbers. Special type double sampling plan based on truncated lifetest approach will be more efficient and save time and cost.

Minimum Sample Size

The life test terminates at the predetermined period 𝑡 0 , and the number of failures that occurred between [0, t] is noted. If and only if the total number of failures at the decision about the termination time does not exceed the acceptance numbers𝑐 1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑐 2 , the lot is decided to be accepted. The theory of binomial distribution can be used because the lot size is supposed to be infinitely large. The probability of acceptance must be satisfy the conditions,
