  2. ANSI/ASQ Z1.4-2003: Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by Attributes - e-Standard (replaced MIL-STD-105D) may be found by going to www.asq.org and navigating to the bookstore and standards. ANSI/ASQ Z1.4-2003 Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by Attributes is an acceptance sampling system to be used with switching rules on a continuing stream of lots for Acceptance Quality Limit (AQL) specified. It provides tightened, normal, and reduced plans to be applied for attributes inspection for percent nonconforming product or nonconformities per 100 units.

  3. ANSI/ASQ Z1.9-2003: Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by Variables for Percent Non-conforming products may be found by going to www.asq.org and navigating to the bookstore and standards. ANSI/ASQ Z1.9-2003 Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by Variables for Percent Nonconforming products is an acceptance sampling system to be used on a continuing stream of lots for Acceptance Quality Limit (AQL) specified. It provides tightened, normal, and reduced plans to be used on measurements which are normally distributed. Variation may be measured by sample standard deviation, sample range, or known standard deviation. It is applicable only when the normality of the measurements is assured.

  4. ASQC Q3-1988: Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection of Isolated Lots by Attributes - E-Standard, may be found by going to www.asq.org and navigating to the bookstore and standards. This acceptance sampling system is used when one or more lots that are isolated or separated from a continuous stream of lots are submitted for acceptance. The quality levels referenced in this standard are indexed by limiting quality. The procedures of this standard differ from those of ANSI/ASQC Z1.4.

  5. ANSI/ASQC B1-B3-1996: Quality Control Chart Methodologies - E-Standard may be found by going to www.asq.org and navigating to the bookstore and standards.

    ANSI/ASQC B1-1996--Guide for Quality Control Charts. This is a guide for handling problems concerning the economic control of quality of materials and manufactured products. It particularly references methods of collecting, arranging, and analyzing inspection.

    ANSI/ASQC B2-1996--Control Chart Method of Analyzing Data. This guide gives particular reference to quality data resulting from inspections and tests of materials and manufactured products.

    ANSI/ASQC B3-1996--Control Chart Method of Controlling Quality During Production. This outlines the control chart method of identifying and eliminating causes of trouble in repetitive production processes in order to reduce variation in the quality of manufactured products and materials.

  6. ANSI/ASQC S1-1996: An Attribute Skip-Lot Sampling Program - E-StandardANSI/ASQC may be found by going to www.asq.org and navigating to the bookstore and standards. To be used only with ANSI/ASQC Z1.4-1993, this standard provides a procedure for reducing the inspection effort on products submitted by those suppliers who have demonstrated their ability to control all facets of product quality.

  7. ANSI/ASQC S2-1995: Introduction to Attribute Sampling - E-StandardANSI/ASQC may be found by going to www.asq.org and navigating to the bookstore and standards. Written to assist in the proper application of ANSI/ASQC Z1.4-1993, much of what is included in this guide applies equally well to many other standards for the acceptance of lots by sampling procedures.
