CARLOS PACHECO VISUAL ARTIST PRESENT How Stuff Works Tattoo machine The pedal or footswitch is used by the tattoo artist to release or cut power to the tatto machine. The source adjusts the voltage and amperage of the power sent to the machine. The machine works by the force of attraction and repulsion generated by the coils. Electricity is spread through contact force, passing through the electrolytic capacitor and coils; The electrical current flows between the coils and the spring front, closing the circuit and causing the coils pull down the needle holder. Cutting the circuit spring exerts a force back up, causing the needle holder up and thus causing the circuit is closed again. The machine moves the needle to pierce the skin between 50 and 3,000 times per minute. The needle penetrates about one millimeter into the skin and deposits a drop of insoluble ink with each puncture.
