How do you calculate the sample size to check in inspections?

In general, we use random sampling inspections where the inspector will use AQL tables to produce the correct sample number. This allows us to randomly select a sample of products from a given batch which will be representative of the overall quality of the batch.

Not all inspections benefit from this method, though, and so other inspections, such as 100% inspections (where every piece is checked), are also provided.

If you’re interested in defining your own sample sizes, try our free AQL calculator tool. to work out your own.
