Company patents

Konecranes Global Corporation

Konecranes Global Corporation's patent strategy shows a surprising recent focus on Machine Testing, which grew by 200.0% in 2025 to represent 10.0% of its portfolio, despite a sharp decline so far in 2026. Concurrently, there's a notable shift away from categories like Conveying & Handling and Motor Control, both experiencing 100.0% year-over-year declines in recent years, indicating a reprioritization of R&D efforts.
