Thanks so much Nur! I've added that idea to the list of video ideas. In all honesty though, Z1.9 is very minor (in relationship to Z1.4) both in how often it is used, and it's relative importance on the CQE Exam.
Dear teacher, I really love your videos, may I ask you a question? What the meaning of ASL data? for example, when we choose ASL criteria 1, does it mean the CPK is 1? Looking forward for your answer, teacher.

Hello, I have a question for you. Is it possible to apply testing standards (ANSI Z1.4 for example) to a full batch of production? I mean using all the population to be tested? I know it will require more time and resources but we know very little our third party (manufacturing company).
@CQEAcademy
2 жыл бұрын
Hey Fernando, yes the ANSI Z1.4 standards are intended to be applied to completed batch production. I'm assuming here you want to test product produced by a 3rd party manufacturer. If you want to test product that you are producing, I'd recommend using a control chart, over ANSI sampling, to control and monitor your process. It'll give you a more advanced warning to issues occurring in the process - and not waiting until the entire batch has been produced.
Hey OEM QE here ; COuple of Questions - How do we define the AQL ? Who defines it generally? - How do we decide if we use single , double or multiple sampling plan ?
@CQEAcademy
2 жыл бұрын
Hey Pranay!!!! Okay, so the AQL associated with your sampling plan should be based on the criticality/risk associated with the feature that you're inspecting for. High risk/high criticality features should have low AQLs, because we want the occurrence rate (defect rate) for that defect to be low. Low risk failure modes can tolerate a higher AQL. But ultimately you determine the AQL. You are also the person who gets to decide between single/double/multiple sampling plans. This basically comes down to the pros/cons of each plan. Double sampling has, on average, a lower average sample size, than a single plan. However it can be harder to administer (aka people can make more mistakes).

Great Explanation Sir. What is the Exact Meaning of Double Side Pointing Arrow i.e; both top and bottom side pointing Arrow?
@CQEAcademy
3 жыл бұрын
Hey Sai, That double side pointing arrow (Up and down) is actually 2 separate arrows. One arrow is in the top box pointing up (Example is F at AQL 1). The second arrow is in the bottom box pointing down (Example is G at AQL 1). (Those examples are for single, normal sampling) The up arrow means that you move up to the plan above that sample size code letter. The down arrow means that you move down tot he plan below that sample size code letter.
@JEREMY-vf1ej
2 жыл бұрын
Here's an example on how you can use the double arrow: Say you have a lot of *495* parts, you want to apply General Inspection Level III, your AOL is 0.4%, that is, you can tolerate a maximum of *0.4%* defect within this lot (or maximum of 495* 0.4% ~ 2 bad parts, i.e., as long as this lot contains no more than 2 bad parts, you will accept it) According to the left Table, this lot size of *495* falls under Sample Size Code Letter "*J*". According to the right table, with 0.4% AOL, you can start with sample size of 32, if zeros are found, you can stop the sampling and accept the lot. If you find one defect, you will have to increase the total sample size to 125, or sample 125 - 32 = 93 more parts. If no more defect is found, you can accept the lot. If you find more defect, then reject the lot.
Great presentation, appriciate your efforts. Can you please explain how to calculate acceptance and rejection no. manually??

Who define the "Special Inspections Levels" and the "General Inspection levels"? Thanks
@CQEAcademy
2 жыл бұрын
That's a decision your organization has to make. And it all depends on the risk that you're willing to accept. The default is general inspection level 2, but if you can tolerate more risk (producers risk and consumers risk), then you can choose to go with general inspection level 1, or the special inspection levels. Also, think about your entire quality system. Do you have other elements in your quality system (downstream inspection), poka yoke, that would mitigate or offset the additional risk that comes with choosing a different inspection level.
Hi Andrew, on what basis the AQL is chosen, I mean what is the criteria to choose AQL 1.0 as in your case? thanks

The AQL depends on the price of the product, and the effect of a possible failure. There are tables that recommend possible AQL levels depending on these 2 attributes
Very nicely presented! I have question on AQL - Does the AQL % represent the actual % defects? So if an AQL =1% does this mean the acceptable % defect by the customer is 1%?
@CQEAcademy
Жыл бұрын
Hey There VK, that's a great question, and honestly it's a long answer. Sooo, the ANSI Z1.4 standard talks alot about the definitions of AQL, and the common miss-interpretations of it. Technically, AQL is commonly defined as the worst tolerable process average that is still considered acceptable. So you're right to think about it as an on-going, average defect rate. But I don't think it should be described as an "acceptable" defect rate. It's the worst defect rate that would be acceptable. You can set an AQL at 1.0, but you should desire a defect rate much lower than 1%. Does that make sense? Sorry for the long reply.
Hi, wonderful video. But I have question, sampling is destruction, so if we in example No 3 inspect whole lot (100% inspection), isn't that destruction of whole lot, which means nothing to sell to the customer? Thank you

Not all sampling is destructive. In that example, you wouldn't use destructive testing, or you would use a different sampling plan.
whats the purpose of √n+1 if youre going to use tables to determine the sample amount?
@CQEAcademy
Жыл бұрын
Hey Deja! Great question - okay, so the ANSI standard tells you how many samples you have to take (lets say 50 for example). Then lets say you receive product on a pallet that has 16 boxes on it, the square root of n +1 tells you how many boxes that you should take samples from - SQRT(16) = 4, then we add +1 to get a total of 5 boxes to sample from. So in that instance you should take those 50 samples from 5 of those 16 boxes.

@CQEAcademy
2 жыл бұрын
Hey Shakir! You have to take 200 samples total, but as long as none of the tests are destructive, then you can take the same 200 samples and test them for the 15 different attributes that you are inspecting for. If the tests are destructive, then you'd have to take 200 samples per attribute. Also in terms of single/double/multiple, that's a choice you get to make. If the process of taking additional samples is easy, then a double/multiple sampling plan is likely a good choice. But if taking samples is alot of work, then the benefits of a double sampling plan are reduced, and a single sampling plan is likely the best choice.

Hey Muhammad, that all depends on the testing that you conducted. If your testing altered the product in any way, you might need to discard it. But if your testing is non-destructive, and you maintain lot traceability with the items, you can consider putting them back into the lot. Also think about the mixup risk. If you're testing similar items, and there is a risk that when you put them back into the lot you accidentally mix them up, then you might want to just toss them. There's not a hard and fast rule for the samples, and it really comes down to your business and the risks.
