Acceptance quality level (aql)

The AQL is the maximum percent nonconforming (or the maximum number of non conformities per hundred units) that, for purposes of sampling inspection, can be considered satisfactory as a process average.

AlfaCaps is the first company in India to have invested in Vision Inspection machines. Passing capsules through this machine guarantees Quality.

Categorization of Defects	Sample Size	Acceptance Number	Rejection Number	AQL %	AOQL %

Major	1250	01	02	0.04	0.067
Minor	1250	07	08	0.25	0.360

The AQLs indicated above could be verified on a composite random sample drawn from vk + 1 cartons in the shipment, where k = number of cartons in the shipment.
