What this shows NKT's Innovation Score is 40.6/100 (top 35% 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 NKT?

Each dot is one of NKT’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). NKT’s own 15.5 claims/patent is at or below the 16.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where NKT's grants concentrate

NKT HV Cables AB is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 68% of grants classified under H01B (CABLES; CONDUCTORS; INSULATORS; Selection OF Materials FOR Their Conductive, Insulating OR Dielectric Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, NKT sits between Nanchang O-film Tech. Co., Ltd. and National Coupling Company, Inc..

NKT's three-year grant acceleration

NKT HV Cables AB shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
