Acceptance Decision Rule for Multiple Items under the Truncated Life Test for Birnbaum-Saunders Distribution Percentiles

In this paper, a group acceptance sampling plan is developed for a multiple number of items to be tested simultaneously in a tester. This study provides information for the group acceptance sampling plan using the total number of failures under the truncated life test to establish the percentile life quality assuming that the product lifetimes are Birnbaum-Saunders distributed. The required number of groups and the acceptance number are determined to satisfy both the consumer’s risk and producer’s risk at a specified quality level. The comparison between the proposed group sampling plan and the original sampling plan given by Aslam and Jun [1] and [2] is presented. The resulting tables and graphs are given to explain the proposed plan under the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution. The real life industrial example is also given.
