    Abstract: A system and method that automatically determine a type of material at a machine input to prevent damage to the machine. A user interface receives a selection of a material type to be loaded into the machine. A controller performs a safety check before starting a process using the machine by matching the selected material type to a material type at the machine input determined based on signals received from a plurality of sensors. The plurality of sensors comprise a material present sensor, a material type sensor opposed by a different material having a inductive sensor correction factor of 0.5 or less, and a material color sensor.
