Tattoo pen aluminum shell CNC turning machining

A tattoo pen is only as good as the shell that holds it together. If the housing feels unbalanced or rough, artists notice — and so do clients. LY-Machining provides CNC-turned aluminum shells that meet the highest standards of comfort, durability, and aesthetics.

Many brands struggle with inconsistent weights, uneven surfaces, or poor alignment between internal parts. Our CNC turning process solves this with smooth contouring, accurate threading, and repeatable tolerance control that supports both function and feel.

We use aircraft-grade aluminum to ensure a perfect balance of strength and lightness. Combined with custom surface finishes, these shells resist corrosion, feel smooth in hand, and reflect the craftsmanship artists expect from premium tools.

Each shell is machined to fit motor, grip, and needle components with zero play. Whether you’re building wireless pens or corded systems, our turning process ensures structural stability and precision fit with every unit.

We support your team from concept to mass production. Send us your design files, and we’ll help optimize the geometry for turning — reducing cost while maintaining the quality tattoo artists care about most.

Tattoo equipment isn’t just about looks — it’s about performance. Unbalanced or low-quality shells can lead to vibrations, heat build-up, or fatigue during long sessions. That’s why we inspect each shell for dimensional accuracy and surface consistency before delivery.

Our flexible production capacity also supports product launches and restocking without delay. Whether you need 50 prototypes or 10,000 units, we scale without sacrificing precision.

Q: What surface finish is best for grip and durability?
A matte anodized finish with light sandblasting gives the best balance of grip, sweat resistance, and long-term wear.

Q: Can I get a custom logo or branding engraved?
Yes. We offer laser engraving and CNC marking to add your brand details with high precision.

Q: How do you ensure color consistency across batches?
We use strict anodizing controls and digital color matching for consistent finish on every production run.

Q: Are the shells compatible with third-party internal components?
Yes. As long as your CAD files follow standard motor and cartridge dimensions, we’ll match your assembly specs exactly.

Q: How fast can I receive a sample batch?
Prototype batches ship within 5–7 working days, depending on complexity and finish requests.
