BlackDog x AXON X3 Professional Wireless Tattoo Machine

Professional wireless performance, seven adjustable stroke settings and local in-house technical support.

The BlackDog x AXON X3 combines AXON’s versatile wireless tattoo platform with TattooINC’s official South African distribution and BlackDog’s in-house servicing, maintenance and technical support.

Designed for professional tattoo artists, the AXON X3 provides stable wireless power, precise voltage control and seven mechanical stroke settings. This allows one machine to be configured for fine detail, soft shading, general tattooing, bold lining and solid colour packing.

TattooINC is the official AXON distributor in South Africa. AXON machines supplied by TattooINC fall under the BlackDog technical division, allowing servicing and maintenance to be handled locally by our in-house team.

Seven Adjustable Stroke Settings

The quick-adjust stroke system provides seven mechanical settings:

• 2.0 mm
• 2.3 mm
• 2.6 mm
• 3.0 mm
• 3.4 mm
• 3.8 mm
• 4.2 mm

The shorter stroke settings provide greater control for fine detail and soft shading. The middle settings offer versatile everyday performance, while the longer settings provide the stronger action required for bold lining and solid colour packing.

Final settings should always be matched to the artist’s technique, hand speed, operating voltage and cartridge configuration.

Dual 2300 mAh Battery System

The BlackDog x AXON X3 includes two removable 2300 mAh batteries. Each battery provides approximately 6–8 hours of operation at 8 V, depending on the operating voltage, cartridge configuration, load and working style.

When the first battery is depleted, it can be replaced with the second while charging. This reduces interruptions during longer sessions and busy working days.

Each battery charges through USB-C and requires approximately three hours to charge when connected to a suitable 5 V / 2 A power source.

Clear Colour Display

The 0.96-inch colour display keeps important operating information visible while working. Displayed information includes voltage, operating frequency, selected mode, battery status and session time.
