Abstract: At 11:00 a.m. on October 4, 2017, an employee was operating a 50 ton Amada RG50 press brake. The employee placed a F094R bracket between the goose neck dies against the magnets and cycled the press brake. The employee was holding the part as the dies were coming down to form a 90 degree angle on the part. As the employee released the part, his glove got caught on a bur on the part. The employee's right hand was caught between the front of the goose neck die and the F094R bracket as it was bending; resulting in the amputation of the first joint of his right index finger. Hospitalization was not required.
