Method for controlling an actuator of an actuator device, at least comprising a clutch and an actuator with • an electric drive motor and a control device, • a ramp mechanism which comprises a rotatable first disk, which has first ramps, a second disk, which can be moved only in an axial direction (8, 13) and which has second ramps, and balls, which are arranged between the disks (6, 9) in the first ramps and second ramps, • at least one spring for moving the second disk in the axial direction; wherein the first disk is rotatable via the drive motor and by means of the ramp mechanism the second disk is movable thereby in a first axial direction for actuating the clutch and the second disk is movable by the at least one spring in a second axial direction and the first disk is rotatable thereby; wherein the second disk is secured via a pin which cooperates with a groove on the second disk relative to a rotation in a circumferential direction (15, 17); wherein the pin is supported at least according to a rotational direction of the first disk on a first side surface facing in a first circumferential direction or on a second side surface of the groove facing in a second circumferential direction, characterized in that in the event of an imminent braking or a reversal of the rotational motion of the drive motor the method comprises at least the following steps: a) a currently present rotational direction of the first disk is established and the side surface (16, 18) on which the pin is supported during the rotation of the first disk is determined; and at least one of b) a preloading force of the at least one spring is determined according to a position of the second disk in the axial direction (8, 13); and c) a first play is determined between the pin and the first side surface as well as the second side surface; and then d) the dynamics of the electric drive motor are reduced by the control device at least in dependence on at least the determined preloading force or the first play in such a way that, during braking, the pin contacts only the side surface (16, 18) established in step a) or that in the event of a reversal of the rotational motion, the pin bridges the first play at a reduced first rotational speed of the drive motor and comes into contact with the other side surface (18, 16) and only then does an increase to a second rotational speed occur. • an electric drive motor and a control device, • a ramp mechanism which comprises a rotatable first disk, which has first ramps, a second disk, which can be moved only in an axial direction (8, 13) and which has second ramps, and balls, which are arranged between the disks (6, 9) in the first ramps and second ramps, • at least one spring for moving the second disk in the axial direction; a) a currently present rotational direction of the first disk is established and the side surface (16, 18) on which the pin is supported during the rotation of the first disk is determined; and at least one of b) a preloading force of the at least one spring is determined according to a position of the second disk in the axial direction (8, 13); and c) a first play is determined between the pin and the first side surface as well as the second side surface; and then d) the dynamics of the electric drive motor are reduced by the control device at least in dependence on at least the determined preloading force or the first play in such a way that, during braking, the pin contacts only the side surface (16, 18) established in step a) or that in the event of a reversal of the rotational motion, the pin bridges the first play at a reduced first rotational speed of the drive motor and comes into contact with the other side surface (18, 16) and only then does an increase to a second rotational speed occur.
