Abstract
The effects of the choice of inspection level are poorly understood by many manufacturing companies and frequently result in waste or customer dissatisfaction. Describes the use of a quality simulation technique to generate cost data related to manufacturing quality performance and inspection strategies. Reviews underlying ideas concerning quality characteristics, process capability and quality performance measures and describes the simulation assumptions and technique. Presents simulation results which show the quality‐related costs associated with various inspection strategies for a range of quality performance.
