Investigation Summary
At 2:00 p.m. on January 5, 2017, an employee was operating machinery to form and create metal automotive window frames. Prior to the incident, the employee was using contour machine No. 01173 to place a bend in a piece of metal window casing. The Contour machine bends pieces of metal and the bent metal pieces are then used as automotive window frames. The employee had just finished placing a bend in the piece of metal and the die had started to retract. At that moment, the metal piece began to slip and fall off the back of the machine. The employee reached for the metal frame as it was falling and the tip of the employee's right ring finger unintentionally came into contact with an unguarded pinch point, located on the right behind the upper ram of the machine. The employee amputated his finger in the accident.
