Zusammenfassung:In some examples, a material removal system may control movement of a material removal machine based on whether a material removal tool is in contact with a sample. A material removal system may include a material removal machine (e.g., saw, grinder, polisher, and/or more general material preparation and/or testing machine) that is configured to move at the urging of one or more actuators. The system may further include control circuitry configured to control movement (and/or speed, acceleration, etc.) of the material removal machine (e.g., via the actuators) based on one or more power, thermal, position, and/or other parameters that indicate whether the material removal tool of the material removal machine is in contact with a sample.
