Narrative

An employee was using a flange-making machine to make a head for tanks/vessels. The employee stopped the machine to take a measurement of the head with a tape measure. Their glove became caught and their right hand was crushed between the side roll and the head, resulting in five broken bones in the hand and three broken fingers.
