Case Study: George Szekely Dental Lab is Increasing Productivity
with the Mayku Multiplier

The George Szekely Dental Laboratory was established in 1968 and is currently a dental prosthetics facility owned by Janine Cerbu and her business partner Amha Selassie. The dental lab creates a wide variety of dental products for their clients, including dentures, crowns, and veneers while also responding to a variety of other dental requests.

Challenges

• The laboratory faced several challenges with their old equipment:
• They only had a small vacuum former, with limited pressure capabilities
• Inability to achieve desired tightness in products for their clients
• They struggled with a time-consuming production process for making night guards, essix retainers, aligners, and bleaching trays
• There was a lot of difficulty managing high workloads, often requiring late-night and weekend work for employees

Solution

To address these work flow issues, the lab invested in the Mayku Multiplier 3D forming machine which is a much more advanced piece of equipment than they were used to and it is designed to improve efficiency and product quality for their lab.

Impact and Results

• The implementation of the Mayku Multiplier machine brought significant improvements to their finished products
• Production time reduced to a quarter of the time that it was previously, saving them time and money
• They noticed much more increased capacity to handle orders without fear of being ooverloaded
• It improved work-life balance for technicians who were able to save time creating the finished products
• They had a potential annual time savings of 1,200 working hours
• They found the ability to expand services, particularly in the growing market of retainers and aligners
• Enhanced employee satisfaction and productivity
