Investigation Summary
At approximately 8:10 a.m. on March 14, 1995, Employee #1, of The Ink Company, was cleaning the rollers of an ink grinding machine, using a rag to perform a final wiping of the rollers. The nip point created by the rotating rollers was unguarded. His left hand contacted the in-running nip point of two steel rollers. Employee #1 suffered serious fractures, for which he was hospitalized for ten days. The OSHA division is proposing a citation for a serious violation of T8CCR 4187(a) because the rollers of the ink grinding machine should have been guarded.
