What has improved with the PW600 featuring PenTech 4.0?
Inspiroy Dial 2 V2 comes with the PW600 pen, which features Huion PenTech 4.0 technology, delivering even greater pen precision.
With automatic tilt adjustment, cursor misalignment is reduced, and lines remain accurate regardless of the drawing angle. Compared to previous pens, line entry/exit and pressure reproducibility are improved, making delicate expressions easier to achieve.
Key Features of the PW600 with PenTech 4.0
Huion PenTech 4.0 is the 4th generation of Huion's pen technology.
It transmits digital data through a proprietary HV200 chip, improving pressure sensitivity to 16,384 levels.
The pressure curve is more refined, supporting everything from 2g activation force (IAF) to maximum pressure, making it easier to capture fine lines.
PenTech 4.0 also includes the following advanced features:
1. Improved Pressure Sensitivity
With 16,384 levels of pressure sensitivity, the pen delivers smooth and precise strokes.
The pressure curve is more refined, accurately reflecting even the most subtle changes in force.
2. Light Activation Force (2g IAF)
The pen responds to as little as 2g of force, providing a natural, fatigue-free writing experience.
It supports everything from 2g activation force (IAF) to maximum pressure, making it easier to capture fine lines.
Note: Activation Force (IAF) refers to the amount of force required to begin drawing.
3. Automatic Tilt Adjustment
Lines can be drawn accurately from any angle, with support for tilt up to 60 degrees.
Cursor misalignment caused by tilt is reduced, maintaining accuracy regardless of the drawing angle.
4. Smaller Pen Nib Size
The slim, easy-to-grip design provides a comfortable drawing experience.
The issue of dust accumulating on the pen body has also been significantly improved, allowing for smooth, uninterrupted line work.
5. Improved Nib Travel
When pressure is applied from 0 to maximum, the nib travels only about 0.35mm into the pen body.
This successfully reduces nib contact, internal vibration, and wobble, providing a hard, pencil-like feel.
Summary
PenTech 4.0 delivers a more precise and comfortable digital drawing experience through the following improvements:
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Pressure Sensitivity | 16,384 levels |
| Activation Force (IAF) | 2g |
| Tilt Support | Up to 60°, automatic tilt adjustment |
| Nib | Slim design, reduced dust accumulation |
| Nib Travel | Max. 0.35mm, pencil-like hardness |
Features Inherited from PenTech 3.0
PenTech 4.0 also inherits the key advanced features of PenTech 3.0.
Optional Nibs: Choose between standard plastic nibs and felt nibs
Tilt Detection: Line thickness and opacity change based on pen angle, allowing for pencil-like shading when tilted
