Whip Mix Holds Annual Lean Symposium of Dental Technology


Louisville, KY: October 2011 – On October 7-8 Lab owners, technicians and industry leaders gathered in Louisville, KY for the Lean Symposium of Dental Technology, presented by the Whip Mix Corporation.
Over the two day symposium, attendees learned the impact of how LEAN concepts and principles transformed dental labs, creating higher efficiency while improving quality. Attendees also took part in a panel discussion with lab owners and manager who have made a lean transformation in their own laboratories.

Whip Mix also recognized labs that have implemented successful LEAN transformations and are committed to continuous improvement. Tim Tyndall, owner Creative Expression in Winterville, NC, was awarded the John Ness Award for his assistance with other laboratories toward making LEAN transformations and the LEAN Lab of the Year was awarded to Rich Lhota of Expertec Dental in Westland, MI.
