Used Mitsubishi EDM Machines for Sale

How MMI Can Help You Find the Right Mitsubishi Machine

Mitsubishi's catalog spans wire EDM, sinker EDM, hole popper EDM, laser cutting, and press brakes, which means the right machine depends heavily on your material conductivity, part complexity, and tolerance requirements. MMI's machinery specialists help buyers work through that decision directly.

Here is what that looks like in practice:

• Application matching. We ask about part geometry, material type, and tolerance requirements, then point you toward the correct Mitsubishi category and series (MV or FA wire EDM, EA sinker EDM, or ML and eX laser systems) instead of just the machine currently in stock.
• Control and generation documentation. Mitsubishi EDM machines have gone through several control generations across the FA, FX, and MV Series. Every listing notes the series and generation so you know exactly what your operators will be working with.
• Financing and trade in support. MMI helps structure financing on used Mitsubishi equipment and can factor in a trade in of your existing machine.
• Nationwide and international rigging and logistics. Our logistics team manages machine disconnect, transport, and reinstallation, including precision EDM equipment that requires careful handling.
• Model sourcing. Mitsubishi's EDM model range spans multiple decades and generations. If the exact configuration you need is not currently listed, our team actively sources it from our network.

If you are not sure which Mitsubishi machine fits your application, contact our machinery specialists or review financing options before you buy.
 

The Major Types of Mitsubishi Machines

Mitsubishi is best known for EDM technology, but the company's product line also covers laser cutting and press brake forming. Here is a quick reference overview of the types MMI regularly stocks:

Machine Type	What It Is Used For	Key Mitsubishi Series
Wire EDM	Precision cutting of conductive materials using a wire electrode	FA, FX, MV, SX
Sinker EDM	Cavity creation in conductive materials using shaped electrodes	EA, EX
Hole Popper EDM	Small diameter hole drilling for starter holes and cooling channels	ED
Fiber Laser Cutting	High speed cutting of sheet metal	eX, ML (fiber)
CO2 Laser Cutting	Legacy sheet metal cutting technology	ML (CO2)
Press Brakes	Bending and forming sheet metal	Hydraulic and Electric Press Brake lines

Each category serves a different stage of precision manufacturing. Mold and tooling shops typically look at MV or FA wire EDM alongside EA sinker EDM, while fabrication shops focus more heavily on the ML and eX laser cutting lines.

Mitsubishi Wire EDM Machines

Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) machines are used to cut conductive materials using a thin wire electrode and electrical discharge energy. These machines are commonly used for producing precision tooling, dies, and complex components that would be difficult to machine using traditional cutting tools.

Mitsubishi wire EDM machines are widely recognized through the FA Series, FX Series, and MV Series platforms.

FA Series

The FA Series was widely used during the 1990s and early 2000s and helped establish Mitsubishi as one of the leading EDM manufacturers.

Common machines include:

• FA10 (1990s – early 2000s)
• FA20 (1990s – early 2000s)
• FA30 (1990s – early 2000s)

In this naming convention, the number generally reflects the machine size and work envelope.

FX Series

The FX Series represented an updated generation of Mitsubishi wire EDM machines introduced in the 2000s.

Machines such as the FX10 and FX20 provided improvements in cutting speed, accuracy, and control technology.

MV Series

More recent Mitsubishi wire EDM machines are part of the MV Series, introduced during the 2010s.

Common machines include:

• MV1200
• MV2400
• MV4800

These machines incorporate advanced control systems and improved wire handling technology designed to increase cutting speed and accuracy.

Mitsubishi Sinker EDM Machines

Sinker EDM machines, sometimes called ram EDM machines, are used to produce cavities in conductive materials by using a shaped electrode.

These machines are commonly used in injection mold manufacturing, die making, and tooling applications.

Mitsubishi sinker EDM machines are commonly found in the EA Series.

Popular models include:

• EA8 (2000s – present)
• EA12 (2000s – present)
• EA28 (2000s – present)

In this naming convention, the EA designation identifies the sinker EDM machine family, while the number indicates the machine size and machining capacity.

Sinker EDM machines are essential in tool and die shops where complex internal shapes must be produced with extremely tight tolerances.

---

Mitsubishi Hole Popper EDM Machines

Hole popper EDM machines are used to drill small, precise holes in conductive materials. These machines are commonly used for creating start holes for wire EDM operations or producing cooling channels in molds and dies.

Mitsubishi hole drilling machines are typically part of the ED Series.

Machines such as the ED24 and ED30 are used in tooling environments where very small holes must be produced with high accuracy.

These machines are often used in conjunction with wire EDM machines as part of a complete EDM machining workflow.

Mitsubishi Laser Cutting Systems

Mitsubishi also manufactures advanced laser cutting machines used in sheet metal fabrication environments.

The company produces both CO₂ laser cutting machines and fiber laser cutting systems, allowing fabrication shops to process a wide range of materials and thicknesses.

Mitsubishi CO₂ Lasers

CO₂ laser machines were widely used in fabrication shops throughout the 1990s and 2000s. Mitsubishi machines in this category often belong to the ML Series.

Common machines include:

• ML3015 (1990s – 2010s)
• ML2512 (1990s – 2010s)

The numbers in the ML naming structure often reflect the sheet size capacity, such as 3m x 1.5m cutting tables.

Mitsubishi Fiber Lasers

Fiber lasers represent the newer generation of laser cutting technology and are widely used for high-speed cutting of sheet metal.

Mitsubishi fiber laser machines are commonly part of the eX Series.

Popular models include:

• eX-F Series (2010s – present)

These machines offer improved cutting speeds and lower maintenance compared to older CO₂ laser systems.

---

Mitsubishi Press Brakes

Mitsubishi also manufactures press brakes used for bending sheet metal components in fabrication environments.

Both hydraulic press brakes and electric press brakes are available depending on the application and required bending precision.

Hydraulic press brakes remain common for heavier bending operations where high tonnage is required, while electric press brakes are often used in applications requiring high precision and energy efficiency.

Press brakes are typically used alongside laser cutting machines and punch presses in a complete sheet metal fabrication workflow.

Why Buyers Choose Mitsubishi Machines

Manufacturers select Mitsubishi equipment for a consistent set of reasons:

• Deep EDM expertise. Mitsubishi has been one of the leading EDM manufacturers for decades, with a product line covering wire EDM, sinker EDM, and hole popper EDM under one brand.
• Extreme precision on complex geometry. EDM technology allows manufacturers to produce tooling, dies, and internal cavities that are difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional cutting methods.
• Strong reputation in demanding industries. Mitsubishi's EDM equipment is widely used in aerospace manufacturing, medical device production, and injection mold making, industries with little tolerance for inconsistent results.
• Advanced wire handling and control technology. Later generations like the MV Series introduced improved wire handling and control systems that increased both cutting speed and accuracy over earlier FA and FX platforms.
• Recognized model families. Series names like MV, FA, and EA carry strong recognition among tooling and mold shops, which supports resale value over time.
• Complementary laser and forming equipment. Mitsubishi's ML and eX laser lines, along with its press brake offerings, let shops combine EDM precision with broader fabrication capability under a familiar brand.

For shops comparing new versus used, a used Mitsubishi machine typically delivers the same EDM precision at a significant discount to new equipment pricing, which is where MMI's sourcing network adds the most value.
