Kraussmaffei Extrusion GMBH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under B29C (Shaping OR Joining OF PLASTICS; Shaping OF Material IN A Plastic State, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; After-treatment OF THE Shaped Products, e.g. Repairing). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Kraussmaffei sits between Kotobuki Tsushou Co., Ltd. and KTB Tumorforschungsgesellschaft mbH.

Kraussmaffei's three-year grant acceleration

Kraussmaffei Extrusion GMBH shows 5 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.
