What this shows Supfina Grieshaber Gmbh & Co. KG stamps GRANTS-MICRO, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-NARROW, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-DROP, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #18,151 of 50,000; Innovation Score 25.7/100 sits in the top 82% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Starting Industrial Co., Ltd. (±0 grants).
Supfina Grieshaber Gmbh & Co. KG has been granted 16 US utility patents between 2015 and 2020, placing Supfina Grieshaber Gmbh & Co. KG at #18,151 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in B24B (MACHINES, DEVICES, OR PROCESSES FOR GRINDING OR POLISHING ; DRESSING OR CONDITIONING OF ABRADING SURFACES; FEEDING OF GRINDING, POLISHING, OR LAPPING AGENTS). As a Foreign Corporation, Supfina Grieshaber Gmbh & Co. KG is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Supfina sits between Starting Industrial Co., Ltd. (16 patents, rank #18,105) and Synedgen, Inc. (16 patents, rank #18,113) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 25.7/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 2 grants, compared with 14 in the 2015–2019 window, a -86% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Supfina Grieshaber Gmbh & Co. KG's 13.3 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 5 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
