Abstract
A method for setting the clamping force acting on a wheel brake, a part of the clamping force being provided using an electromechanical brake device and simultaneously another part of the clamping force being provided using a hydraulic brake device. During an application procedure, the power consumption of the electric motor-driven brake device is regulated to an essentially constant value in an operating phase (phase 4), in which both brake devices simultaneously exert force, so as to set the clamping force of the parking brake very precisely.
