Narrative

An employee was operating a structural mill when a line became jammed between the cut punch system and the roll former. The employee was guiding the material back onto the roller when their right hand contacted the cut punch, resulting in partial amputations to the index, middle, and ring fingers. The area was unguarded at the time.
