Final narrative
An employee was helping a saw operator cut scrap aluminum by pushing aluminum profiles along a roller table into a saw. Starting the saw also activated a clamp to hold the material to be cut; the clamp forced the material down onto the employee's hand, which was pinned between the material and the table. He suffered a partial amputation to the left ring fingertip.
