Zimmer Biomet has completed its $177 million acquisition of Monogram Technologies, an orthopedic robotics company. 

The acquisition expands Zimmer’s suite of orthopedic robotics by adding Monogram’s semi-autonomous robotic technologies, according to an Oct. 7 news release from Zimmer Biomet. 

Monogram Technologies developed a CT-based, semi-autonomous and AI-navigated total knee arthroplasty robot, which earned FDA clearance in March. The technology is expected to be commercialized with Zimmer Biomet implants by 2027. 

In addition, Monogram began a clinical study for a fully autonomous version of the robotic technology in July. 

Zimmer Biomet entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Monogram in July. Under the agreement, Zimmer paid $4.04 per share in cash to acquire all outstanding shares of Monogram’s stock.

With the acquisition completed, Monogram will be delisted from the NASDAQ, the release said.
