Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:30 p.m. on February 17, 2017, an employee was changing a die for a different part to be manufactured. One part of the die was slide in and had a collar on it as the other part of the die was suspended above the collar by a crane. The employee was using his left finger to check to make sure the collar was even all the way around. The employees right hand activated the controls for the crane by accident and lowers the other part of the die onto the left index finger causing a partial amputation. The employee was not hospitalized.
