The device is used for separating a partial quantity of threads from a thread layer by means of a movable separating means, wherein the thread layer is formed from a plurality of adjacently arranged threads. The device includes a movement device for moving the separating means relative to the thread layer, a control device for controlling the movement device and a detection device for detecting threads, wherein the detection device allows the detection of a reference position relative to the thread layer and the movement device can be controlled in such a manner that the separating means can be brought to a working position relative to the thread layer and can execute a separating movement in which the separating means is at least partially inserted between two adjacent threads. At least one relative coordinate of the working position in relation to the reference position is a variable parameter of the control device and at least one value for this relative coordinate can be made available to the control device.
