Final narrative
An employee was operating a Solbern conveyor. The products being transported on the conveyor became jammed at the end of the conveyor. The operator attempted to clear the jam by reaching underneath the conveyor and removing the product that was stuck between the conveyor and a tray. The operator's right ring finger was caught in a belt underneath the conveyor and the skin was peeled from the tip of the finger. The finger was amputated just below the finger nail at the hospital.
