Case Study: Dentsply Sirona achieves 75% faster training and error-proof kitting with Tulip

Tulip’s apps helped cut training times by 75% while reducing errors in a complex kitting process

Dentsply Sirona, the world’s largest maker of professional dental solutions, faced a highly complex, high‑volume kitting operation—about one thousand custom orders per day with billions of possible part combinations. Operators previously required six months of training and the process suffered from frequent errors and limited production visibility. To address this, Dentsply Sirona partnered with Tulip, deploying Tulip’s apps including IoT‑enabled kitting and interactive digital training applications.

Using Tulip, a senior process engineer replaced paper work instructions with interactive, connector‑enabled apps that integrate with backend systems, control Tulip’s Light Kit pick‑to‑light, printers and cameras, and feed real‑time dashboards. The Tulip solution cut training time by 75%, reduced errors, increased traceability for every order, standardized cycle times, and supported over a billion kitting combinations—delivering measurable improvements in quality, reskilling and production visibility.
