Summary

The Canvas 2000CX is a battery-powered, worker-supervised drywall finishing robot built on a Universal Robots UR10e cobot arm, designed for tall-ceiling commercial and institutional interiors above 12 feet. It sprays and sands Level 4 and Level 5 joint compound on interior drywall, including L5 skim coating; taping, first coat, corner work, board hanging, and complex geometries stay with the crew. The 2000CX has been shipping since 2020 and is now distributed by JLG Industries following the January 2026 Oshkosh Corporation acquisition, with 7 confirmed deployments across 9 identified customers.

How it works on your site

Finishing (Second and Third Coats)

The 2000CX sprays L4 and L5 coats and sands dried compound on walls and ceilings up to 20+ feet without scaffolding. Onboard LIDAR and 3D sensors identify taped seams and map work areas without BIM files or pre-scanning; L4 Targeted Spray mode targets only taped seams while full-surface mode sprays everything. The crew continues to handle taping, corners, and complex geometries while the robot covers the broad, high-volume flat sections.

Sanding

The same robot that sprayed the wall returns and sands it. The capture system is designed to pull silica exposure off the crew during what is otherwise the highest-exposure phase of finishing work.

Skim Coating (Level 5 Only)

L5 skim coat is the surface where vendor marketing leads and contractors push back hardest on quality. The 2000CX handles L5 within its 20+ foot reach for tall-ceiling spaces; the 1200CX covers standard ceiling heights at 12 feet.
