Summary A procedure is presented for the acceptance sampling of continuously produced product where the response taken from the product is a variable measurement following a normal distribution with unknown mean and variance. The procedure, which is of the type originally proposed by Beattie, is amenable to destructive testing. It involves essentially a cumulative sum chart with acceptance and rejection zones. Procedures are given for various levels of discrimination between two qualities. The numerical techniques used to obtain them are described.
