The award recognises the excellence, quality and competitiveness of Correa’s UDX milling head design, which it claims has revolutionised the machine tool sector. During the ceremony that took place at BMW Welt, Munich, Nicolás Correa received its If Design Award in the ‘Product/Industry’ category.
The UDX head is a mechanical transmission milling head with a flexibility of rotation every 0,02º thanks to the double Hirth coupling patented worldwide by Nicolás Correa. It is able to perform 10,000rpm (S1) to afford its customers the machining of large and high added value parts with just one head and one machine.
The Correa UDX head has achieved this distinction due to its specifications that make it one of the most innovative on the market. Apart from its specifications and technology, Jury members were impressed by its degree of functionality, its aesthetic appeal, its efficiency and social responsibility standards, as well as its degree of differentiation in the machine tool industry.
