Investigation Summary
At 5:30 a.m. on August 30, 2011, Employees #1 and #2 were running Foam Press A which is used to fill the inside of doors with expandable foam. The top plate of the press was lifted up by the two wire cables and the employees were preparing to remove the door. Employee #1 had removed the two front forms, which held the door in place while the foam is expanding inside the door, and Employee #2 was in the process of removing the two back forms when the wire cable that was holding up the top plate of the press failed, causing it to fall and crush Employee #2's head. The top plate of the press weighed 7,000lbs. The four safety blocks that are used to hold up the top plate, if the wire rope fails, were not engaged.
