What this shows Anca's Innovation Score is 38.8/100 (top 40% 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 Anca?

Each dot is one of Anca’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). Anca’s own 14.5 claims/patent is at or below the 14.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Anca's grants concentrate

Anca Pty Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under B23Q (Details, Components, OR Accessories FOR Machine Tools, e.g. Arrangements FOR Copying OR Controlling ; Machine Tools IN General Characterised BY THE Construction OF Particular Details OR COMPONENTS; Co). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Anca sits between Anacapa Semiconductor and Anhui Morden Furnishings Co. Ltd..

Anca's three-year grant acceleration

Anca Pty Ltd shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
