The invention is directed to an apparatus (10) for manufacturing fiber-reinforced component parts (1) according to a three-dimensional winding method, comprising at least one computer-controlled winding machine for winding filiform continuous fiber strands (12) provided on at least one spool (18) around at least one fiber carrier (11) arranged on a pivot pin (16) with at least one winding pattern. The at least one winding machine is constructed as a robot arm (13) which has a plurality of rotational axes and which lays down at least two fiber strands (12) simultaneously. The at least one robot arm (13) is adapted to simultaneously lay down the at least two fiber strands (12) so as to be distributed to at least two fiber carriers (11) arranged, respectively, on a separate pivot pin (16) and/or to simultaneously lay down the at least two fiber strands (12) on only one fiber carrier (1) arranged on a separate pivot pin (16).
