A system includes: a pad removal assembly; a replacement pad reservoir; an inspection unit; and a controller. The pad removal assembly includes: a separating element arranged proximal a slot; and a guide surface opposite the separating element. The replacement pad reservoir: arranged adjacent the separating element and housing sanding pads configured to couple the sanding head; and including an aperture in alignment with the guide surface. The inspection unit includes an optical sensor defining a field of view directed toward an imaging plane. The controller configured to: access an image recorded by the optical sensor depicting an abrasive area of a sanding pad arranged on a sanding head; extract features from the image; interpret an abrasive degradation for the abrasive area in the image based on the features; and in response to the abrasive degradation exceeding a threshold degradation, triggering a tool change cycle.
