AirVerter® History Smith Eastern began distributing turbine-operated HVLP paint spray guns for other manufacturers in the early 80s. With the first shipments came the first complaints: slow application rate, poor finish quality, and inability to spray high-performance coatings and an electrical explosion hazard. From the search to eliminate these shortcomings, AirVerter was born. AirVerters advanced jet-venturi technology and high-volume open-passage spray gun designs have made it a favorite among aviation and marine industry painting professionals. A full line of spray guns and attachments serves the varied needs of military usersfrom spraying CARC on M-1 tanks to epoxies aboard ships to the latest high-performance polyurethane coatings on aircraft. Nine patents with additional patents pending cover AirVerters unique technology. Over the years AirVerter representatives observed the inefficiency of moving both large items, such as airplanes, and small parts into a spray booth for touch-up painting. One of AirVerters spray gun customers, Northrop Grumman, had developed SCAQMD approved technology to allow touch-up spraying in one of its main refurbishing facilities. In 1998 AirVerter acquired the license from Northrop Grumman Corporation to build mobile air filtration equipment using Northrops proprietary technology. AirVerter then spent an additional two years developing the most versatile mobile air filtration equipment available today, and the only one approved by SCAQMD, PAPCE. Five patents have been issued on PAPCE, two to Northrop Grumman and three to Smith Eastern Corporation. In July 2002, Airverter received the Vendor Excellence Award for Small Business from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). In January 2003, AirVerter received the DLA Business Innovator of the Year Award for Small Business. These awards underscore our commitment to serving our customers with the best available technology. Let us serve you.
