Abstract

Sun-Keun SeoDepartment of Industrial and Management Systems Engineering, Dong-A UniversityMixed acceptance sampling plans for quantity of products in prepackages are widely used for compliance testing. To pass testing, random samples jointly comply with two legal requirements: (i) the average net content of an inspection lot shall be not less than the labelled quantity and (ii) the numbers of under-filled prepackages in a sample are less than or equal to permitted numbers. This paper discusses some drawbacks of the acceptance sampling plans and requirements recommended in OIML R87 (KS A 50087 translated by Korean) developed by the International Organization of Legal Metrology and evaluates the producer’s and consumer’s risks. In addi-tion, problem of determining a target value in filling processes of prepackages under the OIML R87 require-ments is addressed and illustrated with a numerical example.
