Investigation Summary
At 1:15 a.m. on February 7, 2020, an employee, a machine operator, was operating a spot welder when she heard a strange noise coming from the ACSI automated conveyor that was next to her spot welder. The employee noticed that the guard over the chain and sprocket on the conveyor had fallen out of place. The employee was reaching to fix the guard when her glove was caught by the rotating chain and pulled her finger into the sprocket. The employee was hospitalized to treat an amputation of her left index fingertip.
