The verdict
Wolff holds 11 US patents across 12 technology areas, rank #25,523 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Wolff Industries, Inc. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Wolff Industries, Inc. at rank #25,523 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.4 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 US Corporation, Wolff Industries, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Wolff sits between Wholeknit International Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #25,519) and WUXI LEAD Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #25,527) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 31.9/100 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 3 grants, compared with 8 in the 2015–2019 window, a -62% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US 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. Wolff Industries, Inc.'s 18.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Wolff Industries, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Wolff's 11 grants land it in the top 61% 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.
