Investigation Summary
At 9:05 a.m. on September 19, 2019, an employee was operating an unguarded HFA-40W AMADA horizontal metal cutting band saw. The band saw unequipped with a guard, a floor scanner, or safety light curtains. A metal round rolled under the blade and the employee reached to recover the round. The sawblade caught his left index finger, resulting in lacerations and a traumatic amputation of his left index finger. The employee was treated without hospitalization.
