What this shows Hahn-schickard-gesellschaft Für Angewandte Forschung E. V. stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-WIDE, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-SURGE, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #8,817 of 50,000; Innovation Score 51.2/100 sits in the top 12% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Han's Laser Technology Industry Group Co., Ltd. (±0 grants).
Hahn-schickard-gesellschaft Für Angewandte Forschung E. V. has been granted 36 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Hahn-schickard-gesellschaft Für Angewandte Forschung E. V. at #8,817 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 40 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, Hahn-schickard-gesellschaft Für Angewandte Forschung E. V. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Hahn-schickard-gesellschaft sits between Han's Laser Technology Industry Group Co., Ltd. (36 patents, rank #8,817) and Höganäs AB (publ) (36 patents, rank #8,825) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 51.2/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 18 grants, compared with 12 in the 2015–2019 window, a +50% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Hahn-schickard-gesellschaft Für Angewandte Forschung E. V.'s 16.1 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 40 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
