Investigation Summary
At 8:00 p.m. on May 2, 2019, an employee was working for a firm that manufactured wire for communication and other energy purposes. He maintained machinery. He was working on a cable draw machine that led to a spooler. As part of the machine's regular maintenance, he was adjusting the tracking of its belt. He adjusted the belt tracking device and for some reason reached in and grabbed the moving belt. The thumb on his right hand was amputated, and skin on his right arm was partially removed. He was hospitalized.
