Investigation Summary
At 10:00 p.m. on December 27, 2017, Employee #1 was clearing a jam from the inside of the granulator. The granulator was used to grind raw material from pigs. Once the granulator was locked out and opened, there were three rotating blades with a small clearance from the resting plate, which created the grinding activity. The employee was able to move the blades by hand when he pushed on them. He cleared the jam using a screwdriver with his right hand. His left hand was on top of the granulator. As the blades moved, Employee #1's right index finger got caught between the blade and the rest plate, causing an amputation to the tip of his finger.
