Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 200784213
Event: 07/18/2007
Employee Killed When Caught Between Gears of Paper Cutter

On July 18, 2007, Employee #1, a machine operator, and the general manager were adjusting a "Seybold Sixty" paper cutting machine for a specific run. The machine cuts heavy paper to customer determined sizes. After positioning a guide board on top of the cutting table, Employee #1 entered the space below the cutting table. Unaware of Employee #1's position, the general manager activated the guillotine blade. After two failed attempts, the general manager walked around the machine and found Employee #1 underneath the cutting table, caught between the gears of the machine. Employee #1 was killed.
