Employee amputates left ring finger when reaching into a pre

At 12:15 a.m. on March 15, 2017, an employee was running production parts through an Amada RG-50 press brake. While the employee was working on the Amada RG-50 press brake to form the metal parts, she noticed that the metal part was extended past the die on the left side. The employee reached in to push the part to the right while unintentionally cycling the press brake. Her left ring finger became caught between the dies, resulting in the amputation of her left ring finger at the first knuckle.
