Abstract
A clutch actuator for actuating a clutch in the drive train of a motor vehicle, having a housing, a drive, a pushrod, which can be adjusted in an axial direction by the drive, a tappet, which is coupled to the pushrod, and a guide component which is accommodated movably in the housing and receives that end of the tappet which faces the pushrod. At least one stroke sensor, which is associated with the guide component, and a rotation angle sensor, which is associated with the drive, are provided. Embodiments relate to an assembly having a clutch actuator of this kind and a controller, the controller is set up and designed to determine the start of the release stroke of a clutch actuated by the clutch actuator from a comparison of the signal of the stroke sensor and the signal of the rotation angle sensor.
