Abstract
A method for abrasive material removal that includes the steps of establishing an optimum force profile relating to the force or contact pressure applied by a processing tool on a workpiece. The actual force generated during the metal removal operation is monitored and compared to the optimum force profile. Based on the comparison of the actual force with the optimum force profile machine parameters are adjusted such that the actual force generated follows the established optimum force profile.
