Worker's Arm Is Crushed and Lacerated in Machine

At 4:00 p.m. on April 26, 2012, an employee was working for a firm in Rancho Dominguez, CA. The company manufactured coil spring mattresses. The coils were formed and then individually wrapped in a special paper. Those parts were then glued to strips of paper, and then the entire subassembly was covered in the same paper-like fabric. Finally, this assembly was rolled and compressed into a roll for storage. The machine in which all this was accomplished had large inrunning rollers. It was guarded on three sides with interlocked doors, and the front of the machine was guarded with a table. The worker removed this table in order to rethread the paper on some rollers. He was working alone at the time of the incident, and he was not an authorized operator of the machine. As he rethreaded the fabric between the rollers, his fingers and then his arm were caught in the rollers. His right arm sustained a crushing injury, including lacerations.
