Air assisted airless spray guns are commonly used when large areas require spraying or coated and need a fine finish unlike you would get just using airless technology.

Air assisted spraying utilises the power provided by airless and the atomisation compressed air will provide.

 Spraying with air assisted airless guns offer all the advantages of airless spraying IE Speed and coverage yet give the fine finishes that air supplied low pressure guns provide.

Below, lists out these advantages in detail.

  1. Improved atomisation: Air assisted airless spray guns combine the benefits of airless spraying (high transfer efficiency and productivity) with the enhanced atomization provided by compressed air. This results in a finer spray pattern and better coverage, especially for materials that require a smooth and even finish.
  2. Reduced overspray: The addition of compressed air helps to break up the paint particles into smaller droplets, which reduces overspray. This means more paint reaches the intended surface, resulting in less waste and lower material costs.
  3. Enhanced control: Air assisted airless spray guns provide greater control over the spray pattern and fan size. By adjusting the air pressure and fluid flow, operators can achieve different spray patterns (round, oval, or fan-shaped) and adjust the width and density of the spray. This flexibility allows for precise application and adaptability to different coating requirements.
  4. Better penetration and coverage: The use of compressed air in air assisted airless spray guns helps to propel the paint particles more forcefully, enabling better penetration into crevices, corners, and uneven surfaces. This improves overall coverage and ensures a more uniform coating, even on challenging substrates.
  5. Reduced drying time: The increased atomisation and finer spray produced by air assisted airless spray guns result in a thinner and more uniform paint film. This can lead to faster drying times, as the solvent or carrier evaporates more quickly from the smaller droplets.
  6. Versatility: Air assisted airless spray guns can handle a wide range of materials, including solvent-based and water-based paints, stains, varnishes, lacquers, and other coatings. They are suitable for various applications, such as automotive refinishing, furniture finishing, industrial painting, and architectural coatings.
