What this shows JBT's Innovation Score is 47.7/100 (top 18% 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 JBT?

Each dot is one of JBT’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). JBT’s own 16.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where JBT's grants concentrate

JBT AeroTech Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under B64F (Ground OR Aircraft-carrier-deck Installations Specially Adapted FOR USE IN Connection With AIRCRAFT; Designing, Manufacturing, Assembling, Cleaning, Maintaining OR Repairing Aircraft, NOT Otherwise PR). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, JBT sits between Japan Communications Inc. and Jensen Industries Inc..

JBT's three-year grant acceleration

JBT AeroTech Corporation shows 6 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.
