Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was using a Cincinnati press brake that had been set up by an experienced machine operator. He was approximately half-way through running some parts when he lost concentration and missed the pre-set stop, allowing a part to go in further than the set-up allowed. Employee #1 then cycled the machine while his right hand was in the die, crushing his middle three fingers. They did not heal properly and the tips had to be surgically amputated.
