What this shows Maxon's Innovation Score is 53.1/100 (top 9% 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 Maxon?

Each dot is one of Maxon’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). Maxon’s own 17.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Maxon's grants concentrate

Maxon International AG is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 42.9% of grants classified under F16H (Gearing). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Maxon sits between Martur Italy S.R.L. and Mean Well (GUANGZHOU) Electronics Co., Ltd..

Maxon's three-year grant acceleration

Maxon International AG shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
