Investigation Summary
At approximately 4:52 p.m. on June 28, 2017, an employee was assisting the positioning and support of a sheet of metal being fed into an edge radius turning machine. When directed to remove the foot pedal from an energized press brake, the employee inadvertently place his hand on the die and pressed the foot pedal rather than lifting up on it to remove it. The ram and die of the manual press brake crushed and amputated the employee's right pinky finger for which he was hospitalized.
