Product Portfolio
Milling Machines
-
Nicolás Correa has a wide range of milling machines specially designed to satisfy the needs of a variety of different industries. The Correa machine range includes: fixed bed, floor type, mobile table bridge, gantry type bridge and top gantry type bridge machines.
Generously sized and properly ribbed structural parts, strong milling heads, machines in perfect geometry… have always been the distinctive features of NICOLÁS CORREA since its foundation in 1947. We are convinced Robustness is a good bet for our customers, a sensible investment that will result in the following benefits/values:
- Heads
Nicolás Correa heads incorporate a unique technology that makes them some of the most robust and reliable elements of their kind on the market. - 5-year warranty
As part of our commitment to product quality and reliability, Nicolás Correa offers a 5-year warranty on our entire range of machines. - Accuracy
Nicolás Correa is constantly searching for mechanical systems which minimise electronic compensations as much as possible. This helps our machines to maintain their geometry for longer.
Nicolás Correa offers its customers head self-calibration cycles. However, indexing Correa heads maintain their geometry thanks to the toothing assembly system and the real-time correction of head dilations. This means that self-calibration cycles are not necessary when working with indexing Correa heads. - Stock removal
At Nicolás Correa, stock removal capacity is one of the main pillars of our product design strategy.

Applications
- Nicolás Correa milling machines are designed to respond to the production needs of the main industrial sectors, in order to ensure the customer gets the most out of every application. Discover which milling machine is best suited to your specific needs.
Aeronautics
-
At Nicolás Correa we have been developing machining solutions for the aeronautic industry for many years.
We have over 20 years´ experience in manufacturing heads with 2 continuous axes. Thanks to our ability to manufacture interchangeable 5-axis heads, with both built-in electro-spindles and mechanical transmission, we now offer the following applications:- Aluminium structural flight part
- Titanium structural flight part
- Carbon-fibre mould machining
- Tooling
- Revolving parts for aeroplane engines
Automotive
-
The automotive industry has always been, and continues to be, a priority sector for Nicolás Correa.
Consequently, Correa machines offer 4 key characteristics for machining stamping dies and injection moulds:
Shock absorbing capacity: The shock absorbing capacity of our machines enables them to carry out large-scale roughing operations while maintaining stability and therefore prolonging the cutters´ working lives.
Robustness: The robust design of both the structure and the guidance and drive systems enables the machine to offer a high level of precision when finishing a surface.
Thermal stability: Controlling the points on the machine at which heat is generated and minimising the impact of external thermal variations help maintain the part zero position in long-running 3D finishing operations. Another key factor is ensuring the real-time monitoring and control of the temperature inside the head.
Head technology: Heads must comply with the most stringent demands in both roughing and finishing operations. In shape roughing, our indexing heads guarantee a high level of stability, even when using long milling cutters in 3+2 operations. In finishing operations, in addition to offering 5-axis heads with electro-spindle, we also guarantee top-quality results thanks to the use of our UAD technology. UAD technology enables the machine to rotate continuously (24 hours) at 6000 rpm with a high level of stability, thanks to its special transmission and cooling system.
Railway
-
In Nicolás Correa we have accumulated a lot of experience in the machining of rolling stock structures as well as line structures for the railway sector.
Rolling stock structures
Because of its wide range of heads and its automatic change system, which includes small attachable heads. This system enables the machine to access all areas to be machined without having to move the part. Complex heads defined specifically to machine crankshaft and camshaft supports in the engine block.
Because of the capacity of its indexing heads: operations with long tools and shock absorbing capacity when vibrations are generated in the part. The head maintains its position even in the event of strong vibrations in the part.
Integration of mechanical and hydraulic tools and zero point systems into the machine.
Because of its extensive experience in machining bogies. Ask for our list of bogie models that have been machined by Correa machines throughout the world.
Line structures
Because we have developed a specific solution for machining points and crossings, thanks to the use of the FCT high torque front head with double contact clamping.
Because we have decades of experience in the design and integration of magnetic tools for clamping points.
Wind energy
-
The wind energy industry is one of the sectors best suited to Correa products.
We have over 15 years´ experience in manufacturing large floor type ´box in box´ milling machines. The ´box in box´ technology, coupled with Correa indexing heads, offers sufficient robustness to cope with the large-scale roughing operations required by this industry. These large-scale roughing operations enable the machine to make full use of the head´s 52 kW and 1375 Nm torque in any position (indexing every 0.02º, patented system). The ´box in box´ structure, coupled with the robustness of the Correa indexing head, guarantees that most of the spindle power is turned into chips, thus ensuring optimum performance during the various roughing phases. During the finishing of gearboxes, the thermo-symmetric ´box in box´ structure helps maintain excellent machine geometry. Moreover, we have also developed special cycles with a sensor probe that minimise errors at the tool tip during the finishing process.
Capital goods
-
The capital goods industry requires flexible solutions specifically adapted to each product, with a high degree of customisation.
In this sense, Nicolás Correa offers one of the largest ranges of milling and milling-turning solutions on the market. Within this segment, there are several applications worth highlighting in which Nicolás Correa has always been a major player.
Energy
-
Energy production has always been a key sector for all manufacturers of large milling machines and milling machine-lathes.

- Machining of steam turbine casings
- Power generation turbines
- Heat exchangers
- Large rotors
- Large stators
Military
- The robustness of the machine-head assembly in Correa machines enables them to machine the alloys and super alloys often used in the military industry.
General machining
-
Subcontractors which machine large parts continue to be key customers for Nicolás Correa.
The company offers these customers the largest range of milling machines and heads on the market. We also offer an automatic head change system which uses the same interface in all machines, thereby guaranteeing maximum flexibility for machining a wide variety of different parts. Robust heads, designed to work under difficult conditions, with hard materials and long tools and in hard-to-access areas.
