Abstract
A robotic surgical tool includes a handle and an elongate shaft extendable through the handle and including an outer proximal tube and an inner spline rotatably received within the outer proximal tube. A first actuation system is housed within the handle and operable to rotate the inner spline relative to the outer proximal tube and thereby transfer torque to a proximal or distal end of the shaft. A second actuation system is housed within the handle and operable to drive the outer proximal tube and thereby advance or retract the elongate shaft in z-axis translation through the handle.
