The Ottawa Field Validation

Legend Robot deployed its 3.3m Autonomous Latex Paint Spraying Robot at the 18 Louisa St residential project in Ottawa, where BurMont Construction was main contractor and CD Peintre the subcontractor. The company said the robot coated vertical interior walls and ceilings within a single hour at an operational throughput of 221 m²/h with nearly 100% surface coverage. It applied 15L of paint with 0% water dilution, producing a finish with zero sags or runs, and met Level 4 finish standards.

The robot showed 100% out-of-the-box compatibility with major North American coating brands, including Sherwin-Williams, PPG and Benjamin Moore. "We are thrilled to partner with CD Peintre as North America embraces robotic construction," said Jason Liang, Marketing Director of Legend Robot. "This collaboration allows us to empower local jobsites with cutting-edge automation, driving efficiency and industry modernization."

The partners describe a four-pillar localized service model aimed at North American skilled labor shortages and OSHA safety compliance requirements. It comprises free initial training with hands-on onsite instruction on safety protocols, initialization, daily maintenance and operating practices; on-site field support for 3D scanning, jobsite setup, vector path tuning and troubleshooting; a client enablement package of standardized user manuals, localized training documentation and technical assistance channels; and a local response SLA aligned with Canadian jobsite timelines, labor conditions and safety codes. CD Peintre operates in Eastern Canada, and Legend Robot lists the robot on its website.
