Neuma 4 - Cam

Each tattoo style and technique has different requirements. Which machine with which features do you use for which style?

The stroke determines how hard or soft the needle hits the skin and how fast it retracts. In general, the lower the percentage, the faster the hand movement can be. Higher percentages are better for slower hand movements.

• the 20% Cam is ideal for straight and clean lines - quick in, quick out.

• the 28% Cam is suitable for fast shading - a little slower in, but out as fast as the 20% Cam
• the 33% Cam is perfect for smooth transitions and slower shading - a little slower in than the 28%, but out as fast as the 20% Cam
• The 40% cam is the right choice for slow hand movements or for color packing on large areas - as slow as the 33% Cam in and out

Changing a cam is very easy: the pen can be opened with a twist. Then you can simply remove the cam inside and replace it with another one.

Cams also determine the stroke length. This means you can choose between 2.7, 3.5 or 4.2 mm stroke and order additional cams accordingly. There are 4 cams for each.
