Abstract

To be able to selectively influence the braking effect of a friction brake (1) in a certain operating point to be able to reliably and easily achieve regulation or control of a required setpoint braking effect of the friction brake (1), it is proposed to determine an actuation energy (EE) of the electric motor (21) for the braking operation, and to determine the ascertained actuation energy (EE) as the actual actuation energy (EE_actual) in the predefined setpoint position of the friction brake (1), and to determine a setpoint actuation energy (EE_setpoint) with respect to the setpoint position or with respect to a setpoint braking effect from known data concerning the friction brake (1), and to compensate for a deviation between the actual actuation energy (EE_actual) and the setpoint actuation energy (EE_setpoint) by actuating the friction brake (1).
