Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:00 p.m. on December 1, 1992, Employee #1 was operating a cap machine, which is a converted drill press that has air cylinders installed to perform clamping and drilling functions. Employee #1 had placed a part into the machine when a movable safety guard malfunctioned due to a loose bolt. An electrical switch was contacted, activating the machine. The clamping cylinder caught Employee #1's right middle finger between the fixture and the end of the cylinder, amputating the fingertip.
