Investigation Summary
On September 27, 2005, Employee #1, a slitter machine operator, caught his hand in an unguarded chain and sprocket drive set. Employee #1 was hospitalized for treatment of the amputation of his right index finger. The chain and sprocket set consisted of four sprockets run by a chain that ran rollers servicing a slitter machine. The slitter machine was very old, largely shop-built and lacked make, model, and serial numbers.
