Portfolio overview

MELD Manufacturing Corporation has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing MELD Manufacturing Corporation at rank #48,589 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in B33Y (ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING, i.e. MANUFACTURING OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL [3-D] OBJECTS BY ADDITIVE DEPOSITION, ADDITIVE AGGLOMERATION OR ADDITIVE LAYERING, e.g. BY 3-D PRINTING, STEREOLITHOGRAPHY OR SELECTIVE ). As a US Corporation, MELD Manufacturing Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, MELD sits between Medicaltek Co., Ltd. (5 patents, rank #48,585) and MEMC Singapore Pte. Ltd. (uen200614794d) (5 patents, rank #48,593) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.3/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 4 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +300% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. MELD Manufacturing Corporation's 21.2 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 13 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark MELD Manufacturing Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
