A device having at least two grippers (102) for the form-fitting gripping of a bevel gear (1) having a cone face, a heel region, and an axis of rotation (RA). The at least two grippers (102) can be infed radially in relation to the axis of rotation (RA), and each of the grippers (102) has at least one inner region (104) for interacting with the cone face, and a counter holder (103) for interacting with the heel region. Each gripper (102) can have a holder (101) having a changeable angle of attack on an inner region (104) of the holder, and the holder (101) can be movably mounted on the gripper (102) so that it adapts its effective angle of attack in relation to the inclination of the cone face of the bevel gear (1) during radial infeed in the direction of the bevel gear (1).
