A centring block (12) for centring a tooling board (14) in a flat bed die-cutting, stripping or blanking machine is provided, the tooling board (14) having a protruding alignment element (30), comprising a first clamp (24) and a second clamp (26) which are arranged adjacent to each other to define a reception space (28) between them and which are mounted linearly moveable separately from each other in a direction perpendicular to a main extension plane of the tooling board (14) and at least one biasing means (34) which is configured to bias the first and the second clamps (24, 26) towards an aligning position against the tooling board (14), wherein each of the clamps (24, 26) comprises a stop portion (31) for restricting a movement of the tooling board (14) in an insertion and an opposite direction and to fix the tooling board (14) is in a centre position. Furthermore, a centring assembly (10) comprising a centring block (12) is provided.

A packaging line station having a frame, a die assembly, a drive motor, and an anvil roller. The frame has a base with two vertical stanchions extending upwardly from sides thereof and a top cross-member affixed across the stanchions. The die assembly includes a yoke affixed to the cross-member, a die wheel rotatably affixed to side arms of the yoke, a drive shaft affixed to the die wheel and a cutting die affixed to the die wheel. The drive motor is connected to the drive shaft. The drive shaft and the anvil roller extend between the stanchions. The cutting die and the anvil roller and spaced apart by a nip for receiving a traveling web. As the web passes through the nip the web is cut by blades of the rotating die to form a slit. An adhesive resealable tape or label is then applied over the slit.
