I would still suspect a rim from the first picture you posted, or possibly the tool they are using for installation? If the rims are all the same brand and have the sharp edge as someone pointed out it is possible. I find it hard to believe that there would be that many bad tires, I would also hope that Schwalbe would send tires from a different batch just to make sure it isn't the tires.
