1. Technical Specs
• PMU: 3-12V DC, low torque, precision-focused.
• Tattoo: 3-15V, high torque for deeper penetration.
2. Needle Specs
• PMU: ≤0.2mm needles, superficial epidermal layers (0.05-0.2mm depth).
• Tattoo: 0.3-0.5mm needles, dermal layer insertion.
3. Application
• PMU: Cosmetic (eyebrows, lips), natural & temporary (1-3 years).
• Tattoo: Bold body art, permanent pigmentation.
4. Motor Tech
• PMU: Magnetic rotary motors (40% vibration reduction).
• Tattoo: Electromagnetic coils for rapid, forceful strokes.
5. Pigment Retention
• PMU: Fades faster (epidermal placement).
• Tattoo: Stable in dermis (long-term stability).
Summary: Both use needles but differ in voltage, needle size, depth, motor design, and application goals. PMU prioritizes precision for subtle enhancements, while tattoo machines focus on bold, long-lasting body art.
