Abstract
The invention is directed to a method and an arrangement for controlling the position of an actuating element () which prevent damage to the actuating element by a collision with at least one stop () and simultaneously ensure good dynamic characteristics. The position of the actuating element () tracks a desired value within a displacement range. The displacement range is limited for the actuating element () by at least one stop (). A check is made as to whether the distance between the desired value for the position of the actuating element () and the at least one stop () drops below a pregiven value (S). Only in this case is a change of the desired value limited.
