Investigation Summary
At approximately 10:30 a.m. on October 29, 2001, Employee #1 was running resin pellets through a grinding unit, CMS Classifier Milling System, Model Number CMS-20, Serial Number 99820-A, to clean the unit. The grinding unit was disconnected from the screening unit, AZO, E650 C1, FBR Number 136285, Machine Number 109808. Both units are connected with a metal pipe approximately 10-in. in diameter. Employee #1 was collecting the resin in a box, and he put his left hand into the open end of the pipe, to check the wall of the pipe. His middle finger was caught in the revolving cyclone, a fan with sharp blades, amputating his finger. Employee #1 was hospitalized and released four hours later.
