What this shows Aim3d's Innovation Score is 43.1/100 (top 29% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Aim3d?

Each dot is one of Aim3d’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Aim3d’s own 13.8 claims/patent is at or below the 15.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Aim3d's grants concentrate

Aim3d GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under B33Y (Additive Manufacturing, i.e. Manufacturing OF Three-dimensional [3-D] Objects BY Additive Deposition, Additive Agglomeration OR Additive Layering, e.g. BY 3-D Printing, Stereolithography OR Selective ). By volume, Aim3d sits between AIL International Inc. and Airbus Defence AND Space Netherlands B.V.

Aim3d's three-year grant acceleration

Aim3d GmbH shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
