Steel industry patents scrutinised anew Safe and Correct
Best Practices:
Freedom-To-Operate (FTO)
- Ultra-high-strength steel
- Specify substrate composition
- Coating provided
- Identify objection material
Chemical elements
STEELmaker combines the working methods of your professional patent researcher with those of your materials scientist:
- Chemical elements and their different spellings and synonyms
- Value ranges in any formulation are found, e.g. greater than 0.3, 0.2 to 8, up to 7
- Units are harmonised, i.e. automatically converted - in mol, volume or mass percent
Test method
STEELmaker allows you to accurately research various testing methods such as tensile strength, fracture elongation, yield strength, and many more. This allows you to quickly and easily obtain highly relevant results for:
- Material properties of the steel
- Value ranges in any formulation
- Units of any kind are harmonised, e.g. MPa, Nmm2, PSI, kg*m/s²*km2 - STEELmaker converts and finds
Substrate or coating
STEELmaker is able to differentiate between the chemical elements in the substrate and the surface coating.
- Substrate - chemical elements
- Substrate - material properties
- Coating - chemical elements
The global world of steel
STEELmaker provides you with the greatest possible security for invalidity searches, as not only the recognition quality but also the data situation are exceptional. You search not only in national patent full texts, but also in global full texts and their machine translations into English. This means that you can search all IP rights worldwide. Articles and non-patent literature also follow.
Workflow - IP department - R&D/material development
STEELmaker offers a unique workflow for time-optimised working methods. Your experts are spared multiple inspections, thus ensuring the best possible monitoring.
