Abstract: With the development of automobile electrification and intelligence, the demand for electro-mechanical braking (EMB) systems is increasing rapidly. This paper reviews the development status of the EMB actuator on the basis of extensive patent and literature research. By analyzing the basic structure of the EMB actuator, this paper decomposes the actuator into five modules: service brake module, parking brake module, brake clearance compensation module, quick-return module and sensor module. On the basis of basic structure, the estimation algorithm for indirect clamping force control and the direct clamping force control algorithm of the actuator are summarized. In addition, the requirements of the EMB system for intelligent vehicles and its typical architecture are analyzed, and the preliminary application of the EMB system in intelligent driving is summarized.
