Does more volume mean deeper claims for Körber?

Each dot is one of Körber’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). Körber’s own 14.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 9.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Körber's grants concentrate

Körber Supply Chain LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 90% of grants classified under B65G (Transport OR Storage Devices, e.g. Conveyors FOR Loading OR Tipping, Shop Conveyor Systems OR Pneumatic Tube Conveyors). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (4 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2022. By volume, Körber sits between Kustom Signals, Inc. and Larose Industries, LLC.

Körber's three-year grant acceleration

Körber Supply Chain LLC shows 9 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.
