Description
Note that you will also need the No. 55 - Circlip pliers to replace this assembly.
Hint! When replacing you need to remove the Cap and the Needlebar pin. Use the long end of the 1.5mm allen key ( the largest allen key supplied with the machine ) and insert it through the hole in the adjustment screw to loosen. Use the Circlip pliers to remove the Circlip and push out the Connecting pin. Put some grease or oil on the new piston assembly and insert it into the frame, make sure that the Stay up spring is in place and engages with the Spring stop screw in the frame. Insert the Connecting pin and install the Circlip. The Needlebar pin should have a clearance of aprox 0.5mm from the backside of the flange to the frame.
Piston assembly for InkMachines Dragonfly X2 tattoo machine, original spare part no. 40, 1 piece. The piston assembly is one of the central components of the Dragonfly X2 drive mechanism, responsible for converting the eccentric's rotational motion into the alternating linear motion of the tattoo needle. This precision assembly includes the piston, guide elements, and connection components, representing a complete replacement solution. Manufactured from high-quality materials with extremely tight tolerances, the piston assembly ensures the smooth, precise, and repeatable motion that defines the legendary Dragonfly X2 performance. InkMachines uses advanced manufacturing processes to guarantee each piston assembly meets the exacting standards of the Swedish manufacturer. The Dragonfly X2 is available with 2.6mm, 3.7mm, and 4.5mm strokes, and the piston assembly operates optimally with all eccentric variants. The price of approximately 35 EUR reflects this component's complexity and precision. Replacement is necessary when visible piston wear, excessive play in guidance, or mechanical performance loss is observed. A worn piston assembly directly affects the quality and consistency of every tattoo. Original InkMachines part with guaranteed performance. The piston assembly is a component that exemplifies the InkMachines philosophy: every part is manufactured to the highest precision standard to deliver consistent professional performance. Available on tatuat.ro with fast delivery in Romania and Swedish InkMachines manufacturer guarantee.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does piston assembly no. 40 include?
Piston assembly no. 40 includes the complete piston with guide elements and connection components needed for operation in the Dragonfly X2 machine. It is a complete replacement solution that does not require separate purchase of other basic parts. Components are pre-assembled and tested.
How much does piston assembly no. 40 cost?
InkMachines piston assembly no. 40 is available at approximately 35 EUR. The price reflects the complexity, premium materials, and extremely tight manufacturing tolerances of this critical component. It is an essential investment for maintaining Dragonfly X2 machine performance.
How do I know the piston assembly needs replacing?
Signs of wear include: jerky needle movement, loss of precision in lines and fills, increased noise from the piston area, visible play in the guide mechanism, or general decline in machine performance. If maintenance of smaller components doesn't resolve the issue, the piston assembly should be checked.
Does the piston assembly work with all strokes?
Yes, piston assembly no. 40 is compatible with all three Dragonfly X2 stroke variants (2.6mm, 3.7mm, 4.5mm). Stroke length is determined by the eccentric assembly no. 41B, which couples with the piston. The same piston assembly works regardless of the chosen eccentric.
Can I replace the piston assembly myself?
Replacing the piston assembly is a medium-to-high difficulty operation requiring good knowledge of the Dragonfly X2 internal structure. Correct disassembly and reassembly are critical for subsequent operation. We recommend consulting the InkMachines guide or using an authorized service center.
What is the piston assembly lifespan?
The piston assembly is a durable component designed to withstand hundreds of thousands of cycles. With proper maintenance and regular lubrication, it can last several years of professional use. Factors reducing lifespan include lack of lubrication, overloading, and lack of maintenance of associated components.
Does the piston assembly need a break-in period?
The original InkMachines piston assembly is factory-tested and does not require a proper break-in period. However, we recommend a short testing session at progressive speeds after installation to verify correct operation and allow components to settle. Lubricate before first use.
What other parts should be checked when replacing the piston?
When replacing the piston assembly, also check the condition of: inner piston spring (no. 19), connecting pin (no. 23), eccentric assembly (no. 41B), and O-rings. These components directly interact with the piston and wear on one can affect others. A complete service ensures optimal performance.
Does the piston assembly affect machine noise?
Yes, a piston assembly in good condition significantly contributes to the quiet operation of the Dragonfly X2 machine. Piston wear causes play and additional friction that generates noise. Replacing a worn piston can dramatically reduce the machine's noise level.
Why is the piston assembly price higher than other parts?
The 35 EUR price reflects the component's complexity: multiple pre-assembled parts, premium materials, extremely tight manufacturing tolerances, and individual factory testing. The piston assembly is one of the most critical-precision components in the Dragonfly X2 machine, justifying the additional investment.
