What happened
On [REDACTED] an employee sustained a thumb laceration while grinding a 4-inch ingot to remove surface defects.

The employee received medical treatment beyond first aid and the incident was reported immediately. The investigation revealed that the lack of a hands-free or automated ingot rotation system created exposure to the grinder disc resulting in the injury.
