Investigation Summary
At approximately 10:07 a.m. on March 29, 2011, Employee #1, a machinist, was polishing a part with diamond dust and oil for a company. The company was involved in thermal spray coating and machining for the aerospace industry. To polish the part, he placed it on a lathe, which was used to rotate the object. As he applied polishing compound on the part, his finger was caught and pulled into a hole on the part. The rotating part degloved the tip of his right index finger. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center, where he underwent surgery that included amputating the distal phalanx, after which he was released.
