The present invention relates to a novel device with an ultrasonic based drill and corer. The invention uses ultrasonic and subsonic vibrations, which is produced by a frequency compensation coupler or free mass, to produce the hammering action with relatively low axial-force required. The invention can also be fitted with irrigation and aspiration capabilities. The invention is furnished with a body sensor-feedback apparatus, which provide feedback to the operator as to the optimal frequency and power use of the generator. The assembly presented also has a coolant jacket to keep the drill or coring apparatus at optimum temperature prolonging the life of the instrument and the quality of the sample. The invention can be used in numerous applications one of such notable application is on the field of orthopedics.
