Compressor

A compressor is a mechanical device that increases gas density and thereby gas pressure. According to different working principles, compressors can be divided into: power compressors and positive displacement compressors, which are widely used in production and life; according to different ways of reducing gas volume, positive displacement compressors can be divided into reciprocating compressors and rotary compressors.

MGC manufactures and produces rotary (rotary) compressors that are widely used in air conditioners.

The compressor is vividly called the “heart of the air conditioner”.

From 2018 to 2023, Mitsubishi Electric demonstrated a consistent upward trend in the sales of residential heat pump compressors, with the number of units sold increasing from 584 thousand in 2018 to 973 thousand in 2023. The price per unit experienced some fluctuations but generally increased, starting at $1067 in 2018 and reaching $1171 in 2023. This led to a significant rise in revenue, from $623.3 million in 2018 to $1139.1 million in 2023. The gross margin fluctuated over the years, with a high of 36.31% in 2018 and a low of 32.33% in 2022, but it managed to recover to 34.52% by 2023. Overall, Mitsubishi Electric has shown a robust performance in the residential heat pump compressor market.
