The verdict
ROTA holds 8 US patents across 5 technology areas, rank #33,032 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
ROTA Yokogawa Gmbh & Co. KG has been granted 8 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing ROTA Yokogawa Gmbh & Co. KG at rank #33,032 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01F (MEASURING VOLUME, VOLUME FLOW, MASS FLOW OR LIQUID LEVEL; METERING BY VOLUME). As a Foreign Corporation, ROTA Yokogawa Gmbh & Co. KG is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, ROTA sits between ROC S.r.l. (8 patents, rank #33,028) and RS Technologies Inc. (8 patents, rank #33,036) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 24.1/100 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 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The Foreign 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. ROTA Yokogawa Gmbh & Co. KG's 11.6 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 5 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark ROTA Yokogawa Gmbh & Co. KG against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
ROTA's 8 grants land it in the top 86% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
