Abstract: A method for detecting and compensating CNC tools being implemented in an electronic device, receives from a detector first parameters and second parameters in respect of a first tool. Such first parameters include at least one of service life, blade break information, and blade chipping information of the first tool, and such second parameters include at least one of length extension information, length wear information, radial wear information, and blade thickness wear information of the first tool. Based on the first parameters, instructions to process the workpiece are transmitted or not. Upon receiving the second parameters, instructions to adjust operation of the first tool are transmitted, to compensate for deterioration in normal use.

Abstract: This disclosure provides a unique approach for the synthesis of non-stoichiometric, mesoporous metal oxides with nano-sized crystalline wall. The as-synthesized mesoporous metal oxide is very active and stable (durability >11 h) electocatalyst in both acidic and alkaline conditions. The intrinsic mesoporous metal oxide serves as an electrocatalyst without the assistant of carbon materials, noble metals, or other materials, which are widely used in previously developed systems. The as-synthesized mesoporous metal oxide has large accessible pores (2-50 nm), which are able to facilitate mass transport and charge transfer. The as-synthesized mesoporous metal oxide requires a low overpotential and is oxygen deficient. Oxygen vacancies and mesoporosity served as key factors for excellent performance.
