Abstract
In this paper, we consider the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution as a life model to develop various acceptance sampling schemes based on the truncated life tests. We develop the double sampling plan and determine the design parameters satisfying both the producer's and consumer's risks simultaneously for the specified reliability levels in terms of the mean ratio to the specified life. We also propose a group sampling plan and determine the parameters by the above-mentioned two-point method. Tables are constructed for the proposed sampling plans and results are explained with examples.
