Intended purpose
An assembly of devices designed to bore/excavate bones and tough tissues (e.g., cartilage, ligaments) during a surgical procedure. It typically consists of a motorized drill handpiece and/or motor, a control unit, and a variety of attachments used to hold the drilling/excavating instruments (e.g., drills, burs, screwdriver bits, and guide wires). The system is electrically powered from the mains (e.g., 230 or 115 volt) and supplies the handpiece/motor with low-voltage electricity (e.g., 24 volt) through the control unit. This is a reusable device.
