"Cheyenne" is a German tattoo machine manufacturer. It is one of the most widely used machines in the global tattoo industry and is highly regarded by tattoo artists worldwide.
The lineup includes the classic "Hawk," along with many others like the "SOL Nova" and "Unlimited," and its ease of use, regardless of style or preference, is one of its popular features.
Cheyenne Hawk
Among the many products, the "Hawk" is the most classic type. It was the first rotary machine created by Cheyenne and was instrumental in the widespread adoption of cartridge needles in the industry.
The "Hawk," which can truly be called an all-rounder suitable for all tattoo styles, has been updated with a new motor section in its latest version and features a more reliable jack connection.
Cheyenne Hawk pen
The "HAWK Pen" is a pen-style tattoo machine that further improves the handling of the Hawk. Its ergonomic design reduces wrist strain, enabling more comfortable tattooing.
Furthermore, the "Hawk Pen" is equipped with a precise DC motor, which virtually eliminates vibrations, allowing for highly accurate work. It has a stroke of 3.5mm, and the needle protrusion can be adjusted from 0 to 4mm.
Cheyenne Hawk Thunder
Similar to the "Hawk Pen" mentioned earlier, the "Hawk Thunder" is also a versatile pen-style tattoo machine suitable for all tattoo styles.
From the 3.5mm stroke of the "Hawk Pen" to the 4mm stroke of the "Hawk Thunder," the optimized rotary combined with it allows the motor to accelerate at a very high speed.
This reduces the load on the machine, allowing it to deliver peak performance for a longer period.
Cheyenne SOL nova
A departure from the "Hawk"'s marker-pen-like shape, the newly designed "SOL Nova" is a lightweight yet powerful rotary machine that operates very quietly with minimal vibration.
Equipped with a powerful brushless motor (BLDC), it reproduces a smooth drawing feel. Its quiet and smooth operation reduces damage to the client's skin.
With a stroke of 3.5mm, the "Sol Nova" excels at precise lining and soft shading, making it ideal for detailed styles such as black and gray or color realism. When the motor speed is reduced, it also contributes to creating beautiful dot work.
Cheyenne SOL Nova Unlimited
"SOL Nova Unlimited" is Cheyenne's first wireless pen-style tattoo machine. It is available in two stroke lengths: 3.5mm and 4.0mm.
Replacing the "Sol Nova," which used a power supply (outlet) and cord, this model features a rechargeable battery. This frees artists from the hassle of cords, allowing their movements to truly be "unlimited."
It's also great that it comes with two batteries, including a spare for swapping. By charging one battery while using the other, tattooing can continue for extended periods.
Furthermore, the "SOL Nova Unlimited" allows you to adjust the motor speed by tilting it while holding down a button. Experience the stylish usability of this more minimalist mechanism.
