Packaging Systems And Methods For Mounting A Tool On A Surgical Device

A packaged tool assembly comprising:

• an elongated tool that includes a distal cutting bur, a first shaft portion proximal to the distal cutting bur, and a second shaft portion extending from the first shaft portion;
• and
• a packaging body that houses the elongated tool, the packaging body comprising:
• a distal casing comprising a first distal section and a second distal section each comprising a distal cavity being shaped to conform to the distal cutting bur and the first shaft portion, and wherein the first distal section and the second distal section are coupled to one another to collectively encase the distal cutting bur and the first shaft portion within the distal cavities;
• and
• a proximal section comprising a proximal cavity that is elongated and sized to receive the second shaft portion.
