YD Artis Wireless SMP Machine – DOT Mode, Adjustable 2.5–4.0mm Stroke

The YD Artis CTM113 is a professional wireless machine developed primarily for scalp micropigmentation (SMP), combining adjustable DOT Mode, continuous PMU Mode, a 2.5–4.0mm adjustable stroke and wireless/RCA operation in one handpiece.

Designed for trained SMP artists who want more control over dot-placement workflows, Artis can switch between pulsed DOT operation for scalp work and continuous PMU operation for compatible permanent makeup techniques. It runs wirelessly with an included 1680mAh magnetic battery and can also connect through RCA to a compatible external PMU power supply.

Quick Product Specifications

The supplied documentation confirms the CTM113 model, operating modes, adjustable stroke, 2–12V range, 1680mAh battery, universal-style cartridge compatibility and one-year warranty.

DOT Mode – Designed for SMP Dot Placement

The standout feature of Artis is its DOT Mode, which provides adjustable pulsed machine operation for professional scalp micropigmentation workflows.

Instead of running only as a standard continuous machine, DOT Mode allows the artist to coordinate:

Pulse behavior + voltage + frequency setting + stroke + cartridge + hand movement

This gives trained SMP artists more flexibility when working on realistic follicle-style dot placement.

Important DOT Mode Note

DOT Mode does not automatically create identical dots.

Actual dot size, spacing and pigment deposit still depend on factors such as:

• Needle configuration
• Voltage
• Frequency
• Stroke length
• Hand movement
• Pigment handling
• Scalp condition
• Professional technique

Artists should test machine response and dot consistency on an appropriate practice surface before professional application.

PMU Mode – Continuous Operation

Artis also includes a PMU Mode for continuous machine operation.

The machine starts in PMU Mode, allowing it to support compatible permanent makeup workflows in addition to its primary SMP positioning. Before working, artists should confirm the displayed mode, voltage, stroke, cartridge fit and visible needle position.

This makes Artis useful for professionals who want an SMP-focused machine without being limited exclusively to scalp procedures.

Adjustable 2.5–4.0mm Stroke

The Artis handpiece provides a mechanical 2.5–4.0mm adjustable stroke range, allowing artists to change machine drive characteristics according to technique and working preference.

Shorter settings within the range can be selected when a more controlled drive is preferred, while longer settings can provide a stronger machine response for other working styles.

Stroke Is Not Implantation Depth

A 4.0mm stroke does not mean 4.0mm implantation depth.

Actual implantation is affected by:

Cartridge configuration · needle protrusion · voltage · operating mode · hand pressure · working angle · hand speed · contact time · scalp response · technique.

0–4.0mm Needle-Protrusion Adjustment

The machine also provides a mechanical visible needle-protrusion adjustment range of approximately 0–4.0mm.

This is a mechanical reference only. Artists must independently control actual working depth according to cartridge setup and professional technique.

11,000 RPM Brushless Motor

Artis is powered by a brushless motor rated at 11,000 RPM at 8V according to the manufacturer.

The motor supports both continuous PMU operation and pulsed DOT Mode, giving the machine enough flexibility for different professional workflows.

1680mAh Magnetic Battery

Each Artis machine includes one 1680mAh magnetic battery.

Manufacturer-estimated performance:

Runtime: Approx. 3 hours
Charging Time: Approx. 1 hour

Actual battery life may vary depending on voltage, mode, DOT frequency settings, cartridge resistance, battery condition and working habits.

Both US and EU plug adapters are included for charging.

Wireless + RCA Wired Operation

Use Artis wirelessly with its magnetic battery for a cable-free setup.

For wired operation, remove the battery and install the supplied RCA adapter and RCA connection cable to connect the machine to a compatible external PMU power supply.

Important: The external RCA power supply/control unit is not included.

Universal Cartridge Compatibility

Artis is compatible with standard universal-style PMU cartridge systems.

For professional SMP workflows, YD recommends the Violet Precision Universal Cartridge Needle range. Cartridge configuration should be selected according to technique, pigment, machine settings and scalp assessment.

Needle cartridges are sold separately.

Recommended Applications

Artis is primarily designed for professional Scalp Micropigmentation, including:
