What this shows Vemag's Innovation Score is 38.6/100 (top 40% 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 Vemag?

Each dot is one of Vemag’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). Vemag’s own 16.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Vemag's grants concentrate

Vemag Maschinenbau GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 93.3% of grants classified under A22C (Processing Meat, Poultry, OR Fish). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Vemag sits between University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center and Wageningen Universiteit.

Vemag's three-year grant acceleration

Vemag Maschinenbau GmbH shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
