Final narrative
After setting up equipment that deposits cake batter into a pan an employee was investigating why batter was overflowing in the pans. She moved a pan under the depositor to catch the batter. As she did this, the piston for the depositor engaged and pinched the tip of her right pinky finger in the opening where the batter is discharged, resulting in an amputation of the fingertip.
