1. An assembly for producing pasty shaped parts from a strand, the assembly being configured for arrangement between a filling machine supplying the strand and a conveyor taking over the shaped parts, the assembly comprising drivable shape-generating elements adapted to form a shape of the shaped parts, wherein, for a selective production of differently shaped parts and for retrofitting the shape-generating elements, the assembly has a mounting carrier, the mounting carrier comprising a universal drive and the universal drive bearing an interface for the shape-generating elements respectively driven via the interface, the interface comprising a drive shaft and a fixing adapted to mount to each of a rotary knife and a perforated disc mechanism, wherein the universal drive is configured to drive the rotary knife when the rotary knife is mounted at the mounting carrier via the fixing, and wherein the universal drive is configured to drive the perforated disc mechanism when the perforated disc mechanism is mounted at the mounting carrier via the fixing,
wherein the rotary knife is configured to be directly mounted at the fixing, and wherein the perforated disc mechanism is configured to be directly mounted at the fixing.
