Abstract: At 7:45 a.m. on May 1, 2018, an employee was attempting to reposition a roll of film in order to properly feed a coating machine. The employee lifted one side of the spindle using a lifting platform and was attempting to break the roll free from the end-lock on the other side. When the roll broke free from the end-lock, it sprang to the other side where the employee was holding the spindle near the end-lock. The roll crushed the employee's finger against the end-lock, resulting in a partial amputation and fracture to the right thumb.
