Narrative

On March 12, 2018, an employee was stuffing metal liners into media packs and placing them on a conveyor line when the employee attempted to adjust an element that was on the conveyor. The employee's left middle fingertip was then pinched between the end of the element and a step crossing over the conveyor, amputating the fingertip.
