Investigation Summary
At 10:00 a.m. on May 13, 1999, Employee #1 sustained a serious crushing injury to his right hand. This injury occurred while Employee #1, along with a coworker, was bending 0.25-inch-thick by 3-inch-wide by 24-inch-long steel pieces in a Haco 225-ton press brake, Type EMR 43255. The two employees were tasked with processing 2000 pieces. Each employee placed parts between the dies and, after they were set, the coworker stepped on the foot pedal which caused the upper die to descend and subsequently bend the stock. On this occasion, while Employee #1 was positioning a piece between the dies, the coworker, unaware that Employee #1's hand was between the dies, lowered the upper die and, thus Employee #1's hand was crushed. This power press was not guarded as required by the standard. Employee #1 was hospitalized.
