With　the　rapid　transformation　and　upgrading　of　the　global　manufacturing　industry,　the　industrial　Internet　which　will　support　the　future　development　of　industrial　digital　intelligence　requires　the　deep　integration　of　important　enabling　technologies　such　as　5G　and　MEC.　According　to　the　characteristics　of　industrial　environment,　this　paper　designs　a　set　of　industrial　production　environment　to　simulate　the　process　of　data　transmission　on　the　MEC　edge　cloud　industrial　platform,　and　to　measure　the　overall　transmission　delay　of　industrial　data　in　control.　Aiming　at　the　problems　of　different　data　acquisition　communication　cycles,　the　proposed　data　delay　measurement　method　can　solve　the　shortcomings　of　the　current　oscilloscope　direct　measurement　method.　The　experimental　results　show　that　the　proposed　method　can　measure　the　industrial　data　transmission　delay　more　accurately,　with　an　accuracy　of　milliseconds.　©　2022,　The　Author(s),　under　exclusive　license　to　Springer　Nature　Singapore　Pte　Ltd.
