In 2018 a total of 6.300 innovations was entered into the competition from companies and designers from 59 countries.
“I am absolutely delighted by this Red Dot recognition, it symbolizes the creativity and innovative spirit being applied through the entire development process“, says Stefan Zimmermann, Product Manager, Disc Mowers.
The EXTRA 700 series mower conditioners, with their unique QuattroLink Suspension, was developed using inspiration from the racing world. The suspension concept provides exceptional adaptation to demanding ground contours, enabling higher speed and increased productivity. Additionally the intuitive design of all operating elements, adds to an overall simplicity of the machine.
“Success in the competition is proof of the good design quality of the products and once again shows that companies are on the right path. All of the products are characterised by outstanding functionality. This demonstrates that the designers have understood their clients and their needs”, said Professor Dr. Peter Zec, founder and CEO of the Red Dot Award.
This is the second time within four years that Vicon disc mowers receive a Red Dot Award. This award, along with other prestigious accolades received over the last few years, is proof of Vicon’s dedication in developing next level mower design.
