A method and apparatus for supplying twist free flat warp containing a plurality of carbon fibers to a plurality of wefts in a weaving loom, wherein the warp is transversely removed from a plurality of bobbins and twisted along a longitudinal travelling direction of the warps so that flat surfaces of individual flat warps are oriented at a right angle to an arranged direction. The plurality of flat warps are reeded to a desired density in relation to the arranged direction. The warps are then twisted along the longitudinal travelling direction so that the flat surfaces of the individual flat warps are oriented to the arranged direction.
