Employee amputates three middle fingers in roller nip point

On July 11, 2003, a roll tender trainee, was webbing a SPEC Perforation Unit, part of a Harris M1000 Press set-up. The employee was on her knees reaching up under the rollers of the SPEC Perforation Unit. The rollers were not guarded at the in-running nip point. The machine was operating at 22 feet per minute. The fingers of the employee's right hand were pulled into the rollers. When the employee pulled her hand back, her three middle fingers were amputated. A "stop" button was not within reach of the employee or the lead person. The employee was hospitalized.
