Abstract
A method of detecting a kickback event for a table saw includes operatively connecting a stress sensor to the table saw that is configured to detect a characteristic of a work component of the table saw, the work component being coupled to a workpiece being cut by the table saw during a cutting operation. The stress sensor outputs stress signals indicative of the characteristic of the work component. A speed of the saw blade is then controlled based on the stress signals.
