Abstract: At 7:45 p.m. on April 16, 2021, Employee #1 was operating an automatic bottling line, which involved monitoring equipment, observing the line, replenishing materials, and operating equipment controls as needed. The line contained a section of equipment that oriented spray nozzles before the capping and bottling process. When several spray nozzles slowed and backed up at the orientation section, Employee #1 attempted to assist by grabbing the hose area. At that moment, his finger reached a pinch point between two moving belts inside the enclosure, resulting in a fingertip amputation. The employee was treated without hospitalization.
