What Is A Tattoo Pen Machine?

The tattoo pen is a relatively new addition to tattoo machines. These machines resemble rotary tattoo machines because they have direct-drive motors, making them easy to use and suitable for tattoo artists just starting. Plus, they’re lightweight and make very little noise, making them quite convenient for the artist and the person getting a tattoo. 

A set stroke is often the defining feature of the pen tattoo gun, so the artist can’t manipulate and change the stroke. On the downside, most pen machines don’t have a disposable grip, meaning the artist will need access to an autoclave to avoid cross-contamination. 

How Does Tattoo Machine Gun Works?

Before you splurge on the best tattoo gun kit, you should learn how everything works. The first thing to know is that different tattoo machines work in different ways, but the principle is essentially the same. The coil machine works on an electromagnetic current, which turns the magnets on and off. The magnets then move the armature bar. The rotary machine motor is directly attached to the armature and moves it up and down. 

In both machines, the needle is attached to the armature bar, and when the bar moves up and down, so does the needle. Moving up and down, the needles pierce the skin delivering the ink to the dermis. The up-and-down movements are limited to a certain distance and extremely quick, although the artist should be able to control the speed
