When I use autoencoder for anomaly detection, I need to set the threshold. Is there any way to set the threshold automatically? Especially for motor maintenance, if there are a large number of motors, how to set the threshold value quickly to judge whether it is good or not?

The question is a bit vague. But here are a few pointers.
You might want to reconsider the model you are using. For example, some models ouput a class label. Other models (logistic regression) will output the probability (p) that the element is label X.
If you have a probability, then you can set a threshold based on that. “i.e. show me all the items where I am 70+% confident that the item belongs to class X”. If you want to threshold the data in some other way, then you will need to be more specific in your question.
