Where Wurtec's grants concentrate

Wurtec, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under B66B (ELEVATORS; Escalators OR Moving Walkways). By volume, Wurtec sits between Worldwide Antenna Systems LLC and X-Tend Robotics Inc..

Wurtec's three-year grant acceleration

Wurtec, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
