Investigation Summary
At 3:00 p.m. on August 31, 2021, an employee working for a metals plant was holding a shell while cleaning a lathe. The shell had just had its inner surface roughened by a rotating wire brush connected to the chuck of the lathe. The employee reached for an air hose when his glove caught on the wire brush. The employee received medical treatment without hospitalization for an amputated finger and lacerated hand.
