An orthopedic impacting device comprises an electric motor, an actuating device, an anvil removably associated with a surgical tool to be introduced or extracted, a striker element adapted to interact with the anvil to promote the introduction or extraction of the surgical tool, and a motion transmitting system adapted to transfer the motion from the electric motor to the striker element. The anvil has two abutment surfaces interacting with the striker element, and said two abutment surfaces comprise a first pushing surface and a second extraction surface. The motion transmitting system comprises a pusher element, adapted to move the striker element by two elastic elements capable of amplifying the thrust exerted by the striker element selectively on one of the two abutment surfaces of the anvil. The anvil is an internally hollow cylinder within which the striker element and, within the latter, the pusher element are contained.
