The inspection procedure is based on Taguchi et al. (1989), in which to inspect the item, if the number of non-conformities is higher than an upper control limit, the process needs to be stopped and some adjustment is required; and, if the last inspection h, from all items inspected present a number of non-conformities between the control limit and warning limit. The items inspected will suffer destructive inspection, being discarded after inspection. Properties of an ergodic Markov chain are used to get the expression of average cost per item and the aim was the determination of four optimized parameters: the sampling interval of the inspections (m); the constant W to draw the warning limit (W); the constant C to draw the control limit (C), where W ? C, and the length of sequence of inspections (h). Numerical examples illustrate the proposed procedure / Este trabalho prop?e um procedimento de controle on-line de processos por atributos, utilizando um gr?fico de Shewhart com dois Limites de Controle (Limite de Advert?ncia e Limite de Controle) e ser? baseado numa sequ?ncia de inspe??o (h). O procedimento de inspe??o ? baseado em Taguchi et al. (1989). Assim, ao inspecionar o item, o processo ? parado para ajuste se o n?mero de n?o conformidades for superior ao Limite de Controle; como tamb?m se nas ?ltimas h inspe??es, todos os h itens inspecionados apresentarem um n?mero de n?o-conformidades entre os Limites de Advert?ncia e de Controle. Utilizando-se de propriedades de uma Cadeia de Markov Erg?dica, foi obtida uma express?o do custo m?dio do sistema de controle, que pode ser minimizada por quatro par?metros: Intervalo entre inspe??es (m), Limite de Advert?ncia (W), Limite de controle (C, em que W ≤ C) e o tamanho da sequ?ncia de inspe??o (h). Um exemplo num?rico ilustra o procedimento proposto
