Our Aql inspection process

The Acceptance Quality Limit (AQL) is a quality inspection method widely used to assess product quality and determine the maximum number of defective goods that are still considered acceptable during random sampling in a production process.

Our AQL inspection process follows these steps:

1. Identify Inspection Level: Depending on the complexity and type of the product, we define the level of inspection required. This varies from general inspection to specialized inspection for high-risk products.

2. Decide AQL Standard: We set the acceptable level of defects for the product, keeping in mind industry standards and client requirements. For example, a common AQL for a high-risk product may be 0.65, which means 65 defects per 1000 units inspected.

3. Sampling Plan: Using the AQL table, we select the sample size that needs to be inspected, based on the batch size. This provides a balance between inspection cost and quality level.

4. Random Sampling: We randomly select the determined sample size from the whole batch for inspection, ensuring each item in the batch has an equal chance of being picked.

5. Inspection: The sample lot is inspected to identify defective goods and classify the type of defects.

6. Results Evaluation: After inspection, we tally the number of defects against the AQL standards. If the number of defects exceeds the standard, the whole batch is rejected.

7. Report & Feedback: Finally, we document the results and provide feedback to production for improvement, if required.

This process helps us to maintain a high-quality level while reducing inspection costs, and assures that our products are up to industry standards and client expectations.
