The invention relates to a two-axis rotator for producing a rotation about two orthogonal spatial axes, and to a handling device comprising a two-axis rotator of this kind. The two-axis rotator for producing a rotation about two mutually orthogonal rotational axes comprises a main body, a first rotor and a second rotor, wherein the first rotor is mounted on or in the main body so as to be able to rotate about a first rotational axis, and the second rotor is mounted on or in the first rotor so as to be able to rotate about a second rotational axis, and wherein the first rotor has a first drive and the second rotor has a second drive, and the first drive and the second drive can be driven independently of one another.
