Investigation Summary
At 9:45 p.m. on February 12, 2021, an employee working as a machine operator for a metal pipe and tube manufacturer was prepping steel beams for a CNC press. The employee was talking on his cellphone while loading the beams from the material staging area onto the operational area of the press. As the beams approached the press, the employee placed his left hand onto the operational working surface. At that time, the employee caught his left hand between the press and the operational working surface. The employee was hospitalized to treat a tuft fracture and partial amputation to his middle finger.
