Abstract

Systems and devices may include a motor operatively coupled to a driveshaft configured to be driven in a first direction in a first mode for impaction and a second direction in a second mode for retraction. Systems and devices may include an anvil configured to be operatively coupled to an implement. Systems and devices may include an impaction cam operatively coupled to the driveshaft, wherein: the impaction cam, when in an impaction position, is configured to strike the anvil when driven by the driveshaft in the first direction to drive the anvil in an impaction direction. Systems and devices may include a retractor configured to be driven by the retraction cam in the second direction, wherein the retractor is configured to strike the anvil to drive the anvil in a retraction direction.
