## Body

## 1. Introduction

With the continuous development of the Internet of things technology, the Internet of things has been gradually applied in various fields as an emerging industry in the new era, changing the face of world economic development. The numerical control technology of the Internet of things can solve many problems in mechanical control, bring opportunities and challenges to mechanical and electrical automation control, and create a good numerical control foundation for the mechanical and electrical automation control system to adapt to modern development [1].With the development of the Internet, many Internet-related technologies have also been innovated and developed. All emerging Internet technologies are affecting people’s real life [2]. People begin to try to set up an ID card for all objects in real life, so that they can connect all objects to the network, and use the convenience of the Internet to control all objects in real life. The purpose of the Internet of things is to connect all objects in real life. Gradually, the industrial sector has begun to introduce and apply the Internet of things technology, which is based on the characteristics that the Internet of things can accurately control production, which is beyond the reach of human beings, especially the actual production of precision mechanical automation engineering projects [3].Due to the high demand for initial data in the design process of the manufacturing machinery automatic detection system, it is necessary to collect machinery automatic data with high accuracy in the preliminary stage of design, so as to improve the design of the overall detection system [4]. The traditional automatic inspection system for manufacturing machinery based on computer vision is designed to query the image of the internal part structure of the machinery, adjust the internal operation structure of the inspection system, and obtain accurate inspection results [5]. The traditional manufacturing machinery automatic detection system based on node detection is designed to analyze the detection network of the detection system, build a detection platform, and strengthen the control of the detection platform according to the network analysis content, so as to achieve better detection results [6]. However, the traditional system design has a small grasp of the mechanical automation data of the manufacturing industry, which does not meet the requirements of the sustainable development of the system, and the detection accuracy is low [7].


## 2. Literature Review

The application of the mechanical electromechanical automatic control system is mostly realized in complex and harsh environment. Therefore, it is necessary for the staff to remotely control the equipment and operation procedures on the automatic production site and monitor the parameters of the equipment operation status and system production status on the site. The staff at the monitoring point under the Internet of things numerical control technology can generally skillfully control the software and hardware resources in the system, so as to achieve the purpose of system fault elimination and maintenance and reduce the human resources of the system on site. At the same time, Internet of things numerical control can also be used to analyze and process on-site data, with preventive troubleshooting of potential faults in the system. It can also provide a more reliable data execution basis for mechanical and electrical automation technology through Internet of things numerical control technology and improve the efficiency of mechanical and electrical automation [8]. The following requirements must be met in the overall framework design of the CNC mechanical and electrical automation control system based on the Internet of things:
(1)
IOT CNC can fully control and manage the mechanical and electromechanical automatic machining program [9]. The production program data in the mechanical electromechanical automation system can be systematized through the Internet of things numerical control technology, and relevant management personnel can retrieve the mechanical electromechanical automation production program parameters at any time, which is conducive to timely maintenance of hardware equipment and improvement of automation level [10](2)
The Internet of things numerical control technology is applied to ensure the safety of mechanical electromechanical automation parameters. During the implementation of the system, the operating parameters of the machine tool will change due to the operator’s control error, increasing the material loss of mechanical electromechanical automation. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the parameters in the system in real time through the Internet of things numerical control technology to avoid parameter changes [11](3)
Mechanical and electrical automatic production equipment pays more attention to the production quantity of equipment, and operators often ignore the maintenance of production equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to apply the Internet of things NC to monitor the automatic machine tools, reduce the faults of automatic production equipment, and extend the service life of the machine tools(4)
In the process of mechanical, electromechanical, and automatic production, no artificial mechanical control is involved, but professional personnel are required to monitor the production data in real time to meet the safety and manufacturing stability in the production process, and then, the Internet of things numerical control technology is applied to maintain or expand the wireless communication function of the machine tool, so as to increase the efficiency of mechanical [12], electromechanical, and automatic production(5)
The key technology of Internet of things numerical control is wireless sensor communication technology, which can be applied to the production communication of mechanical and electrical automation [13]. The potential resources in the network topology development system such as Ethernet gateway and data format frame number are designed in the numerical control mechanical and electrical automation equipment. With the increase of the flexibility of Internet of things, the monitoring, data acquisition, and analysis in the mechanical and electrical automation control system are reflectedTherefore, in view of the above problems, this paper proposes a new design of the manufacturing machinery automatic detection system based on Internet of things technology to analyze and solve the above problems [14].
