Investigation Summary
At approximately 1:20 p.m. on April 23, 2009, Employee #1, a deburring clerk, was polishing a batch of metal gasket at an aerospace parts manufacturing facility. The metal gasket had an outer diameter of approximately 5.5 in. and internal diameter of approximately 5.3 in. with a thickness of 0.015 in. The machine was produced by Dayton, Model Number 6K482B, and Manufacturing Number C55JXFDR-2958, rpm 3450. The polishing wheel was manufactured by Scotch Brite, Product Number 7S FIN. He was holding the edge of the part at approximately 45 degree angle to the wheel, when the part became entangled in the polishing wheel. The part rotated with the wheel, striking his hand and injuring his index finger up to the first knuckle. He was taken by ambulance to Long Beach Memorial Hospital, where he had surgery involving the amputation of his right index finger up to the first knuckle. After the surgery, he was hospitalized.
