Investigation Summary
At 10:35 a.m. on December 2, 2024, Employee #1 was performing maintenance on a sensor inside a robotic enclosure. As he entered the area, the robot was stopped by entrance sensors. While he was cleaning the sensor, a coworker reset the machine from the control panel, unaware that Employee #1 was still inside the enclosure. The robotic arm activated and struck Employee #1, reportedly lifting and placing him onto a roller platform. He sustained multiple internal and external injuries and was killed as a result of the incident.
