A multi-disk brake for a motor vehicle has two multi-disk mechanisms and an actuation device for brake actuation and/or brake release of the multi-disk mechanisms, and an electric drive for translational actuation (spreading) of the actuation device, such as, in particular, the ramp unit. During a spreading operation, the multi-disk mechanisms are pretensioned in a metered manner by the actuation device and produce a desired frictional engagement, and a correspondingly reversed activation of the actuating mechanism enables a correspondingly metered brake release. By means of the electric drive, the action of the multi-disk brake can be metered overall in a particularly precise, sensitive and compensated manner in modern vehicle topology, including all peripheral brake components and systems, including recuperation.
A multi-disk brake for a motor vehicle with a rotatable drive shaft and with a guide device fixed in relation to the drive shaft, a multi-disk arrangement/multi-disk pack comprising alternately arranged lining disks and with intermediate disks, wherein the lining disks are non-rotatably connected to the drive shaft or to the guide device and the intermediate disks are non-rotatably connected to the respective other of the guide device or the drive shaft, further comprising an actuation device, for actuating/pretensioning the multi-disk arrangement/multi-disk pack and with an actuating mechanism/actuator for actuating and/or releasing the actuation device, wherein the actuating mechanism/actuator has an electric drive;
