Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was working at a pinch rolling machine in a plant that manufactures dairy process equipment. Employee #1 was standing at the in-running roll side of the machine holding and guiding sheet metal into the in-running rollers when his gloved left hand became caught in the rollers, pulling his hand into the un-guarded rotating rollers. Employee #2 was operating the rolls by foot control and heard Employee #1 cry out. Employee #2 reversed the rollers freeing Employee #1's hand. Employee #1 sustained crushing injuries to his left hand that resulted in the amputation of his middle finger on that hand.
