An apparatus for laying down a fibrous strand in an ordered manner comprising means (2) for supplying a fibrous strand (1), means (4) for forwarding the strand (1), means (7) for imparting an oscillatory motion to the forwarding strand (1), two closely spaced plates (10, 10A) providing a path for the oscillating strand (1) extending between the oscillatory means (7) and a moveable collecting surface (11) whereon the strand (1) is laid characterised in that the apparatus is provided with gas jet means (16) located between the oscillatory means (7) and the collecting surface (11) for deflecting the oscillating strand in such a manner that the amplitude of the oscillating strand (1) is increased. |
