29 CFR 1910.212(a)(1): Machine guarding was not provided to protect operator(s) and other employees from hazard(s) created by rotating parts: On or about 7/26/2016 employees were exposed to struck-by and caught-by hazards where screw stackers were inadequately guarded: a. at Screw stacker #20, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate with the right door open, exposing the pusher conveyor system. b. at Screw stacker #21, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the right door installed, exposing the pusher conveyor system. c. at Screw stacker #21, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the left door open, exposing the rotating screw. d. at Screw stacker #23, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the right door installed, exposing the pusher conveyor system. e. at Screw stacker #23, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the left door open, exposing the rotating screw. f. at Screw stacker #24, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the right door installed, exposing the pusher conveyor system. g. at Screw stacker #24, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the left door open, exposing the rotating screw. h. at Screw stacker #25, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the right door installed, exposing the pusher conveyor system. i. at Screw stacker #25, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the left door open, exposing the rotating screw. j. at Screw stacker #25A, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the right door installed, exposing the conveyor belts system. k. at Screw stacker #25A, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the left door open, exposing the rotating screw. l. at Screw stacker #41, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors. The line continued to operate without the right door installed, exposing the rotating screw. m. at Screw stacker #41, employees were exposed to caught in and amputation hazards where observed operating the machine with the interlock guards defeated by metallic screw caps installed over the sensors.
