Does more volume mean deeper claims for TYK?
Each dot is one of TYK’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). TYK’s own 5.2 claims/patent is at or below the 16.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where TYK's grants concentrate
TYK Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 41.7% of grants classified under B22D (Casting OF METALS; Casting OF Other Substances BY THE Same Processes OR Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, TYK sits between TTM Technologies, Inc. and Taymor Industries Ltd..
TYK's three-year grant acceleration
TYK Corporation shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
