Fast, accurate, and efficient analysis of production data is a key element of the Industry 4.0 paradigm. This applies not only to newly built solutions but also to the digitalization, automation, and robotization of existing factories and production or repair lines. In particular, technologists’ extensive experience and know-how are necessary to design correct technological processes to minimize losses during production and product costs. That is why the proper selection of tools, machine tools, and production parameters during the manufacturing process is so important. Properly developed technology affects the entire production process. This paper presents an attempt to develop a post-hoc model of already existing manufacturing processes with the increased requirements and expectations resulting from the introduction of the Industry 4.0 paradigm. In particular, we relied on fuzzy logic to support the description of uncertainties, incomplete data, and discontinuities in the manufacturing process. This translates into better controls compared to conventional systems. An analysis of the proposed solution’s limitations and proposals for further development constitute the novelty and contribution of the article.
