An hydraulic braking system includes a primary pressure source connected to a brake actuator and operable by a force input device, a fluid displacer actuated by an electrical stepper motor operated by a controller in response to action of the force input device, as sensed by a sensor, whereby fluid displaced from the displacer is added to that displaced from the primary pressure source for application to the brake actuator. By suitable programming of the controller, servo-assistance and/or quick-fill modes can be produced by the displacer and wheel-slip correction and anti-skid facility can be provided.
