Tattoos have become popular worldwide as many people enjoy the form of self-expression that it offers. As a result, tattoos have even taken over the fashion and beauty industry. These are usually symbols, images, or drawings permanently marked on the human body. It is done by reciprocating needles that repeatedly penetrate a person's skin at a high-frequency rate, thus depositing insoluble ink into the dermal layer of the skin.

Coil tattoo machines are one of the oldest types; it requires an electromagnetic circuit that provides motion to the tattoo needle. In contrast, a rotary tattoo machine uses an electric motor with a rotating shaft to move the needle. 

How does the Rotary Tattoo Machine Work?

Rotary tattoo machines are becoming popular among artists as compared to coil machines.

• As opposed to electromagnetic coils, rotary machines use DC coreless motors to drive the needles; this converts the rotational force into reciprocating motion. 

• In a rotary tattoo machine, the needle bar is attached to a nub on top of a cylinder motor that spins clockwise, thus moving the needle bar back and forth in a linear fashion. This motion inserts the tattoo needles into the skin and retracts them smoothly in a series of constant, fluid motions.

• The rotary machine allows artists to adjust the speed of the needle assembly. The puncture speed may vary from 50 to 1000 times per minute.

• Set and control the needle stroke on the skin. These types of tools can adjust the depth of the needle and thus can be used for tattoos that demand precise accuracy.

Rotary tattoo machines are much easier to set up and require minor tuning and lower maintenance than traditional coil machines. The lighter weight is an advantage that makes the machines easier to handle and reduces strain on the artist's hand and fingers. It even helps the artists to work for longer hours in a single sitting. Rotary tattoo machines are excellent for multi-color images where clear borders are essential.

The main disadvantage of rotary machines is that they feed the needle at right angles, making it necessary to go over the same area several times. Thus, the procedure turns out quite painful and time-consuming.
