Lot Acceptance Under Inspection Errors: Benefits of Multiple‐Inspector Sampling Versus Single‐Inspector 100% Inspection

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In high‐value and safety‐critical manufacturing contexts (e.g., aerospace, nuclear and defense sectors), reliable and robust conformity assessment of production lots is imperative.
