Germany. A 57-year-old man was cleaning the silo of a wood chip heater when he was caught in the screw conveyor, the man sustained fatal injuries. According to his wife, he left the house at 8:30 a.m. to clean the silo . In this silo, logs would be pulled towards the center into a shredding system by a screw that rotates very slowly horizontally across the floor (360° in approx. 15 minutes) with a screw turn running in a centripetal direction. At around 9:45 a.m., an employee from another carpentry shop noticed a malfunction in the silo. The affected person was ultimately found dead in the silo.
