Life Test Acceptance Sampling Plan for the Weibull Distribution Incorporating Producer’s Experience

Abstract

Type-I censoring (or time truncation) aims to decide a lot to have a specified life of the product with a minimum sample size and acceptance number for the underlying lifetime distribution. A producer has confidence in his manufactured product and so, we in this paper provide a case when the producer specifies the probability of a zero-failure event by his experience. Life test acceptance sampling plans for the Weibull distribution under the Zero-modified Binomial distribution are developed and are compared with the Binomial sampling distribution. Two real-life examples to demonstrate our plans are given. A simulation study has been done for providing proposed life test sampling plans using R 4.1.2.
