Nachi-Fujikoshi

Products: robot-arm. Risk band: Low   RobotRisk index 7.6/100 (incidents/exposure, time-weighted) · 97th percentile of 122 machinery oem companies.

Analyst brief

Nachi-Fujikoshi's record consists of one entry: the July 2015 fatality of Wanda Holbrook, killed by a robot at the Ventra Ionia Mainstamping plant, rated severity 5, the maximum severity level in the schema. This is a press-driven fatality record rather than a regulatory action, and it is a single event with no accompanying recall or citation entries. The index of 7.6 and percentile of 96.7 place Nachi-Fujikoshi in the low band among machinery-OEM entries despite the maximum severity of its lone entry, reflecting the category's low volume overall rather than a mitigating factor. The record shows no pattern, only one isolated maximum-severity event.
