Portfolio overview

Weber Maschinenbau Gmbh Breidenbach has been granted 61 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Weber Maschinenbau Gmbh Breidenbach at rank #5,643 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 30 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in B26D (CUTTING; DETAILS COMMON TO MACHINES FOR PERFORATING, PUNCHING, CUTTING-OUT, STAMPING-OUT OR SEVERING). As a Foreign Corporation, Weber Maschinenbau Gmbh Breidenbach is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Weber sits between UNL Holdings Llc (61 patents, rank #5,639) and ARC Devices Limited (60 patents, rank #5,647) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 47.4/100 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 31 grants, compared with 30 in the 2015–2019 window, a +3% 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. Weber Maschinenbau Gmbh Breidenbach's 18.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 30 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Weber Maschinenbau Gmbh Breidenbach against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
