The most widely used universal Cartesian 3-Dimensional (3D) Printing today is not fast enough. However, by applying double nozzles, the process for making symmetric bilateral product can be done in half of the time. A symmetric bilateral product is an object that has the same size on the right and left sides. So, the method can be implemented by having double actuators that are mounted by a nozzle on each side. Both nozzles, called as Y and -Y nozzle, move on the same time and distance but in different direction. Besides that, an appropriate mechanical support is needed to be prepared, so that the motors can move in different direction at the same time. Therefore, a design simulation for two Y actuators was carried out. The simulation and the data taking were using actuator simulation software. The simulation results shows that the G-code can control two Y actuators with 99.64% accuracy with average error of 0.216% for revolution speed, and 100% accuracy with average error 0% for distance. The motor can move in different directions with the same type of screw.
