Abstract: The transverse slider is one of the components in the 3D machine civil building printing which serves to help
bring the nozzle to the coordinates according to the desired building design in order to produce the shape
according to the design. 3D machine printing Civil buildings require a device designed to be a carrier for other
components. Transverse slider will carry the nozzle with the help of the motor movement, then with the help
of the control the slider will move according to its coordinates so as to help bring the nozzle to the coordinates
of the building design. The construction of the transverse slider on the Civil Building 3d printing machine is
carried out by machining and fabricating the parts such as lathe, milling, grinding, and welding. After the
Slider is completed and realized at the Bandung Manufacturing Polytechnic Department of Manufacturing
Engineering, it is hoped that the Slider can be used for the manufacture of civil buildings and function properly
and be useful for the Polman academy, and the State of Indonesia.
1 INTRODUCTION
Along with the times, the manufacturing industry is
always developing continuously so that advances in
manufacturing technology can simplify and speed up
the production process, as well as its relation to civil
technology that applies the Additive Manufacturing
method by means of 3D Print for building
construction. Additive Manufacturing is a
manufacturing process by adding material in layers so
that it can form something called finished product,
this building construction can be operated by 3D Print
which processing time is relatively faster compared to
manufacture by human labor.
3D Print building or 3D building concrete casting
machine (3D Concrete Building Printing) has a
working principle similar to 3D Print in general,
namely the FDM type, where the building to be
printed can be formed by adding concrete material
and removing it layer by layer through a nozzle whose
movement is operated by the program. 3D Print this
building requires nozzle for Secrete ingredient
geopolymer which becomes ingredient building, so it
is necessary sliders for bring nozzle to the desired
coordinates so that the designed building could
formed.
The working principle of the 3d printing
transverse slider for civil buildings is that the servo
motor will rotate according to the direction of the
computer. The servo motor will turn the gears on the
rack gear to move Slider according to coordinates.
The slider will bring the nozzle to form the desired
civil building design.

2 SOLUTION METHODS
In this solution method, it begins by making design
based on found references. After To do planning start
the planning process making about how sliders this
will made. After planning done so start at stage
material procurement, material procurement is
