Investigation Summary
On September 15, 2009, Employee #1 was working at a brick manufacturing company. After the brick is cut it is pushed on to the set-table. After a predetermined number of bricks are pushed on to the table, the table opens in sections, and a set-head comes down and picks up the bricks. A light curtain on three sides of the table will stop the movement of the set head if the light curtain is broken. Employee #1 must have seen some bricks become miss-aligned which could prevent the set-head from picking up the bricks. He somehow by-passed the light curtain allowing the set-head to continue to move as he entered the set table area. He was not able to get out from under the set-head before it came down to pick up the bricks. He was caught between the set-head and the bricks on the set-table and killed.
