A tool-holder column for a unit for converting a flat substrate that has two upper bearings () each for supporting one end of an upper rotary tool (), and two lower bearings () each for supporting one end of a lower rotary tool (), the flat substrate being movable longitudinally between the upper rotary tool () and the lower rotary tool (), the bearings () being vertically movable in opposite directions on either side of the longitudinal direction (L) of movement of the flat substrate, and a common drive for the bearings () allowing the bearings () to be moved simultaneously by one and the same distance in opposite directions, and including a screw device (), the bearings () being mounted one above another on the screw device () such that the rotation of the screw device () causes the linear movement of the bearings () in opposite directions.

An arrangement () for driving a flat substrate along a longitudinal direction, the arrangement being mounted in a packaging production machine. The substrate has a surface that has sustained at least one modification. The arrangement includes a device () for driving the substrate along the longitudinal direction, and a device for bearing the substrate against the driving device (), and having at least one bearing zone () facing toward the driving device (). The substrate is engaged and driven between the driving device () and the bearing device. The bearing zone () has a transverse dimension (D) and position (Y), chosen as a function of a transverse dimension and a position of the modification on the substrate, so as to prevent damaging the modification between the driving device () and the bearing device.

A device for a waste stripping unit fitted with two rotating tools which cooperate to strip at least one item of waste which originates from a blank of a plate element () which passes through the unit and between the two tools. At least one tool has pins that remove the waste items. At least one part () is inserted between the two tools and which forms a support for the blank and also opens a passage for the stripped off waste. The part is shaped and positioned in accordance with the layout of the blank.
