Investigation Summary
At 7:30 a.m. on March 13, 2017, an employee was placing a cabinet on the conveyor of a case clamp machine. As the employee approached the machine and grabbed the case clamp frame to lean and look at the cabinet being clamped, he inadvertently placed his hand too far inside the frame and was pinched between the track and the wheel of the clamp. The employee's left ring finger was amputated up to the first knuckle.
