Abstract

In this paper, a group acceptance sampling plan using weighted binomial is developed for a truncated life test when the lifetime of an item follows exponential and Weibull distributions. The minimum number of groups required for a given group size and the acceptance number is determined when the consumers risk and the test termination time are specified. The operating characteristic values according to various quality levels are obtained. The results are explained with examples.
