The method to Set a Tattoo Power Supply

A power supply runs a current to a tattoo machine to move the needle in and out during a tattoo. The tattoo machine needs adjustment to the contact screw, armature bar, and springs to function properly. Once the machine is set to a comfortable level for the tattoo artist, the power supply is the next step. The setting of the power supply will determine how fast or slow the needle moves in and out. This setting changes from tattoo to tattoo, depending on the size of the tattoo and the client's skin. I will give you some methods how to set the tattoo power supply. And the procedures are as follows.

Insert the tube and needle into the tattoo machine. Attach the clip cord to the back of the tattoo machine and insert the other end of the clip cord into the power supply. Turn on the power supply and tap the foot pedal to hear and ensure that the machine is running.

Turn the knob on the power supply to the right for a high setting. A high setting is best for fleshy areas of the body, such as an inner arm or thigh. This setting will make the needle move faster.
Turn the knob to the left to lower the setting. Use this setting for bony areas of the body, such as a wrist or shin.

Listen to the sound of the machine running at each setting. Fluctuate the settings between high and low until the tattoo machine is running at the speed that will prevent scarring and at the same time keep the tattoo from falling out.

What i said is very simple, so you could easily set the tattoo power supply after the shopping. But different situations have different results. You should handle the problem as the reality.
