I'm loving our new Mitsubishi MV 1200-R. However there are a few things that I've had to learn the hard way. I am hoping that there are some Mits users out there who might care to share some tips and features that they have found to be useful that are peculiar to the MV series.
Here are a couple I've found so far:
--When wiring small holes (<.080" or so) the Corner Master control will hold back the feedrate for the skims so much that the resulting hole will be oversize a couple of tenths. The solution I use is to change the CM-S "in" to +10 for the cut. I had to make myself a note to remember to turn it on and off...I hope Mitsubishi can fix it someday.
--If I change the E-pack settings from within the program, such as "E7070" for a VG of 80, the Straightness Compensation is turned off. This could be a problem, since usually the machine needs to tip the U and V about a tenth per inch of height. Better to make up a new Epack by copying the "stock" one and change the VG in it.
Anyone else found any little quirks or tips they can give?
