A method of processing a fibrous cable fed at a high speed comprises the steps of braking the cable by coiling it on a stationary cylinder and simultaneously discharging at a low speed the lower cable windings by exerting downward pressure on the upper windings. The discharged windings can be deposited into containers or cut into staple fibers by pressing the discharged windings against stationary knives. A device for carrying out the method comprises an upright rotatable shaft having a hollow upper part for receiving the cable, a downwardly projecting guiding member attached to and communicating with the hollow upper part, a stationary cylinder surrounding the lower portion of the shaft and having in its cylindrical wall a plurality of vertical slits, a wobble plate disposed within the cylinder and having a plurality of fingers projecting through the vertical slits in the cylindrical wall. The wobbling movement of the plate is synchronized with the circular movement of the guiding member such that the fingers in the highest position of their swivel are always opposite to the outlet opening of the guiding member so that the cable is wound on the cylindrical wall under the pressure of the wobble plate fingers.
