[0002] By using 5G to transmit data, data collection of glass equipment is highly real-time. In the calender glass production line, the failure of key equipment such as the calender and main drive will be a serious production accident. When a failure occurs, it is necessary to quickly solve the failure and resume production. Under such working conditions, engineers rush to the site to solve the failure. When the distance is relatively long, especially at overseas sites, time is not allowed.

By connecting the remote maintenance center and the die casting machine components together through the Internet, the remote maintenance center can remotely monitor, diagnose and modify the control program of the die casting machine components. Among them, the communication network described in the remote maintenance system described in the prior art solution is a 3G wireless communication network, and its communication transmission efficiency cannot be guaranteed, so that the equipment in the industrial park cannot achieve high real-time remote maintenance.
