Investigation Summary
On May 15, 2009, Employee #1, a punch press machine operator with the Victory Racing Plate Company, was operating a trim press (60 ton Minster; two-hand actuated). The press was set in the "inch" mode, or production, position. Employee #1 had both of his hands at the point of operation, while he was trying to reset a spring that was located at the back of the machine. While Employee #1 was reaching in, the machine actuated. Employee #1's left ring finger was amputated from the second joint. His right hand was caught in the machine but suffered only minor injuries. It took approximately 35 minutes to free Employee #1 from the machine. The employee was taken to the hospital, where he was treated for the amputated finger.
