The AT2E Stress Crack Tester is designed to test the internal stress in bottle base and for determining the stress crackresistance of blow-molded PET carbonated soft drink bottles by measuring the propensity for base cracking upon exposure to an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution under a controlled environment, so that to estimate the long term behavior of bottles. Testing procedure: - Install and clamp the sample bottle on each position then close the door - Affusion head will seal and fill the bottle automatically with target volume of water then pressurize the bottle to predefined pressure and stay for a target time (like 5 minutes). At same time of water filling and pressurizing, system will fill the solution into each posistion - After target staying time is up, all the testing positions descend until the predefined distance and bottle base will be coverred by the solution completely - Record the time and pressure for each bottle to failure until predefined time - Test stops after the predefined time
