What this inspection record means
OSHA opens inspections for many reasons — routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

(b) In the large lathe department for employees operating the Dainichi CNC lathe, serial #17709, where the CNC lathe was not equipped with a functioning door interlock device exposing employees to the potential hazard of being struck by parts expelled from the turning lathe or being caught in the moving machinery inside the turning lathe by opening the lathe door during machine operating cycle. (c) In the medium lathe department for employees operating the Okuma LC 30 CNC lathe, serial #54080058, where the CNC lathe was not equipped with a functioning door interlock device exposing employees to the potential hazard of being struck by parts expelled from the turning lathe or being caught in the moving machinery inside the turning lathe by opening the lathe door during machine operating cycle. (d) In the medium lathe department for employees operating the Mori Seiki SL-35 CNC lathe, serial #1386, where the CNC lathe was not equipped with a functioning door interlock device exposing employees to the potential hazard of being struck by parts expelled from the turning lathe or being caught in the moving machinery inside the turning lathe by opening the lathe door during machine operating cycle. (e) In the medium lathe department for employees operating the Okuma LC 40 CNC lathe, serial #55120342, where the CNC lathe was not equipped with a functioning door interlock device exposing employees to the potential hazard of being struck by parts expelled from the turning lathe or being caught in the moving machinery inside the turning lathe by opening the lathe door during machine operating cycle. (f) In the medium lathe department for employees operating the Okuma LC 40 CNC lathe, serial #55030174, where the CNC lathe was not equipped with a functioning door interlock device exposing employees to the potential hazard of being struck by parts expelled from the turning lathe or being caught in the moving machinery inside the turning lathe by opening the lathe door during machine operating cycle. (g) In the medium lathe department for employees operating the Okuma LC 40 CNC lathe, serial #0192, where the CNC lathe was not equipped with a functioning door interlock device exposing employees to the potential hazard of being struck by parts expelled from the turning lathe or being caught in the moving machinery inside the turning lathe by opening the lathe door during machine operating cycle. (h) In the medium lathe department for employees operating the Okuma LC 30 CNC lathe, serial #55030146, where the CNC lathe was not equipped with a functioning door interlock device exposing employees to the potential hazard of being struck by parts expelled from the turning lathe or being caught in the moving machinery inside the turning lathe by opening the lathe door during machine operating cycle.
