A method for producing a multidirectional contexture made of fibers, in particular carbon fibers, in which a unidirectional contexture web is wound at an angle about a plate to form a coil, wherein the plate is provided with a device for compensating friction, and the coil is pulled off from the plate. In order to provide improved pulling of the fibers off a plate a cascade guide is being used, which is disposed at the end of the plate and which comprises a laterally extended wedge.
