Abstract: At 6:08 a.m. on May 15, 2020, an employee was cutting the plastic wrap between two paper rolls. He was using a knife with his right hand to cut the plastic, while using his left hand to break the plastic wrap from the roll. The knife blade caught on the plastic wrap and pulled his hand down and into the ingoing nip point of the rotating paper roll and drum roller. The employee amputated his right index fingertip but was not hospitalized.
