Single action vs double action

Hi HF experts,

I am new to Hyperform and feel a bit difficult to understand the concepts - 'Single action' v.s 'Double' action in Hyperform.

Which cases should we use 'Single' and when should use 'Double'?

Hi single action and double action denotes the type of press.

Single Action Presses. A single action press has one reciprocation slide that carries the tool for the metal forming operation. The press has a fixed bed. It is the most widely used press for operations like blanking, coining, embossing, and drawing.
Double Action Presses. A double action press has two slides moving in the same direction against a fixed bed. It is more suitable for drawing operations, especially deep drawing, than single action press.
