We want to be able to test the strength and durability of the helicoils. Therefore, we designed a part to test the helicoil strength (below). The plan for this part is to have the X inside the lid of the bioreactor. Then. the protruding 2 cylinders will hold a 5-pound weight. This weight will apply force downwards on the bioreactor and thus testing the strength of the heliciols. We need to ensure that our helicoils are secure and reliable.
