A coating system for applying a coating to a substrate that can be part of a wall assembly. The system includes a positioning stage and an end effector coupled at a distal end of the positioning stage, the end effector configured to apply coating to a target surface. The system can further include a computing device executing a computational planner that: generates instructions for driving the end effector and positioning stage to perform at least one coating task that includes applying coating, via the coating the end effector, to one or more substrate pieces, the generating based at least in part on obtained target surface data; and drives the end effector and positioning stage to perform the at least one coating task.

A mud pumping apparatus that can be removably coupled to a container the mud was originally provided in when first obtained by the user. The mud may be mastic, mortar, grout, joint compound, spackle, or the like. The apparatus may be sized to be used with various standard sized containers, and adjustably powered and controllable to be used with different types, consistencies, and viscosities of spreadable material.
