Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing a tape having a curve, especially a curved flat line compound. The inventive device consists of several clamping jaw pairs that are arranged downstream in relation to a weaving device and serve for withdrawing the individual lines. The clamping jaw pairs are moveably arranged along the direction of withdrawal, are driven and can be swivelled. In a preferred embodiment, two clamping jaw pairs are used which can be moved to-and-fro along the direction of withdrawal in an alternating manner and by means of drives that engage on the ends of the clamping jaws. The amplitude of the movement can be changed in an independent manner on both sides. The drive device can be configured as a crank gear system. A crank gear engages on each side of each clamping jaw and the lifting movement of the crank gears of one side can be adjusted in relation to the lifting movement of the crank gears on the remaining side. Different warp threads (e.g.
