This would present a problem even if the face was drafted, but a side action solves the problem. (See Fig. 9.) Similarly, heavy texture on a low-draft face, which might not be reproducible in a straight-pull mold, can be produced using side actions. The same is true of decal recesses on vertical faces. These are shallow undercuts that simplify the placement of decals. Proto Labs’ free online quoting and analysis engine points out areas that can be produced using side actions, giv- Fig. 9.
