Mitsubishi MP1200 vs Mitsubishi Electric MV2400S
Mitsubishi Electric vs Mitsubishi Electric · Wire EDM
Summary
The Mitsubishi MP1200 and the Mitsubishi Electric MV2400S are both wire EDMs from Mitsubishi Electric, one size apart. The Mitsubishi MP1200 travels 400 x 300 x 220 mm; the Mitsubishi Electric MV2400S travels 23.6 in (600 mm) in X, 15.7 in (400 mm) in Y and 12.2 in (310 mm) in Z, and carries three times the workpiece weight.
The Mitsubishi Electric MV2400S is rated for 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) against 500 kg, on a 33.0 × 22.0 in (840 × 560 mm) table against 640 x 540 mm. Both run 0.1 to 0.3 mm wire, but only the Mitsubishi MP1200 lists φ0.05 and 0.07 mm as options. It is also the smaller installation: 2025 x 2702 mm of floor against 105.8 × 119.3 in (2,687 × 3,030 mm), and 3100 kg including the dielectric fluid reservoir against 7,716 lb (3,500 kg).

Advantages
Mitsubishi MP1200
- Optional φ0.05 and 0.07 mm fine wire; the Mitsubishi Electric MV2400S lists 0.004–0.012 in (0.1–0.3 mm) only
- Smaller footprint: 2025 x 2702 mm against 105.8 × 119.3 in (2,687 × 3,030 mm)
- Lighter installation at 3100 kg including the dielectric fluid reservoir, against 7,716 lb (3,500 kg)
Mitsubishi Electric MV2400S
- Longer travels: 23.6 in (600 mm), 15.7 in (400 mm) and 12.2 in (310 mm) in X, Y and Z against 400 x 300 x 220 mm
- Three times the workpiece load: 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) against 500 kg
- Larger table, 33.0 × 22.0 in (840 × 560 mm) against 640 x 540 mm
Verdict
Choose by workpiece size and wire size. The Mitsubishi MP1200 suits small punches, die inserts and fine-detail work that calls for the optional φ0.05 or 0.07 mm wire, in shops where a 2025 x 2702 mm footprint matters. The Mitsubishi Electric MV2400S suits mold inserts and die blocks that need 23.6 in (600 mm) of X travel and a 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) load rating. If the parts fit inside 400 x 300 x 220 mm, the larger machine adds floor space the work does not use.
