ABS stands for Anti-lock Brake System. An ABS motor pump is the device under the hood that pressurizes the brake fluid for use in ABS stops (a stop in which wheel spin has been detected and the computer takes over the braking) and for use in regular stops, in some cars. Power brake systems in cars usually use what's called a vacuum booster to increase the amount of brake pedal force being applied to the master cylinder. This helps people stop a 3000 pound car without having to literally stand with all your mite on a brake pedal. With the advent of anti-lock brakes, manufacturers realized they could use a motor to pump up the brake fluid pressure internally and do away with the brake booster, even for normal stops. It depends on the manufacturer of the car, what the exact job of the ABS motor is. But, for every manufacturer that uses an ABS motor pump, it is always used during ABS stops to increase internal brake fluid pressures.

What produces a loud grunting noise from abs system on takeoff on 1998 Mercury Mystique when you remove abs fuse to deactivate system noise goes away?
If the noise to which you are referring only happens one time at drive off after inital key-on/start of the vehicle, this is probably from the ABS pump motor. The activation is known as "pump check", whereby the pump motor is turned on for a short burst to verify it is functioning. The pump motor is a critical component in the ABS system. It's function is to pump the brake fluid back to the master cylinder after pressure decrease at the wheels. If the motor does not repond to the pump check activation, the ABS light is illuminated on the instrument cluster indicating the ABS is not functioning properly and a trouble code is stored in the vehicles diagnostic system.
