Sworn and technical translation of engineering specifications, user manuals, CE/ISO certification, CAD drawings and public tender documents by translators with engineering backgrounds.
Technical documentation in industrial manufacturing, aviation, automotive, energy and infrastructure requires millimetre-level accuracy and zero tolerance for errors. A single conceptual error in a machine installation instruction, safety data sheet (MSDS) or engineering specification can lead to serious workplace accidents, production-line stoppages and costly liability claims.
Technical translation has two certification levels depending on its intended use. Specifications, declarations of conformity, CE type-examination certificates and tender files submitted to the Public Procurement Authority, Turkish Standards Institution (TSE), Ministry of Industry and Technology or customs authorities are prepared as sworn and notarised translations. Factory maintenance instructions, end-user manuals, AutoCAD drawings and parts catalogues are delivered as professional technical translations with their formats and legends preserved.
Our technical translators have backgrounds in mechanical, electrical and electronics, civil, mechatronics and chemical engineering. We localise CAD drawings, XML/DITA files and technical diagrams directly in the source files without disrupting their layers.
Our linguists with domain-specific background work in strict compliance with international standards, statutory terminology, and custom corporate translation memories.
The certification level depends on the public authority receiving the document or its industrial purpose:
A legal translation stamped by an engineer-translator sworn before a notary, valid before public authorities and courts.
Specialist translation for industrial production, field operations or end users when notarisation is not required.
Technical specifications submitted to government tenders or customs authorities may require notarial certification, while professional translation of assembly and maintenance manuals used by factory technicians can improve cost and time efficiency.
Detailed manuals for heavy industrial machinery, automation systems and consumer devices.
Engineering parameters, tolerance tables and technical specifications for public tenders.
AutoCAD sheets, mechanical drawings, electrical diagrams and architectural projects.
Declarations of conformity with EU standards, laboratory test results and EC certificates.
Safety sheets for chemicals and hazardous substances aligned with REACH and GHS standards.
Detailed mechanical, electronic or chemical claims and descriptions of technical inventions.
Localisation of assembly, commissioning and maintenance documents for imported production lines.
Translation of extensive specifications for wind turbines, metro lines and dam projects.
Translation of automotive parts catalogues, military standards (MIL-STD) and quality assurance documents.
We identify specialised component names and terms and prepare an approved project glossary.
We assign the project to a translator specialised in the relevant engineering discipline, such as mechanical, electrical or civil engineering.
We translate while preserving the layer structure and schematic integrity of source files such as AutoCAD or FrameMaker.
A second specialist engineer verifies unit conversions, tolerances and technical consistency.
Documents for public authorities are notarised, and technical files are delivered in their original formats.
Fees depend on the complexity of the engineering discipline, file format (Word, CAD, InDesign), volume and required certification level.
CAD and specialist design files are delivered directly in their source formats while preserving drawing layouts and technical templates.
Yes. Using CAD plug-ins and professional desktop publishing tools, we translate text directly in .dwg or .dxf files without changing layers or fonts.
We add your established terminology to a translation memory (TM) and corporate termbase, ensuring consistent wording across every manual and technical document.
The Public Procurement Authority and TSE generally require sworn translation certified by a notary. Our engineer-translators sworn before a notary can prepare documents for same-day notarised delivery.
For large industrial projects, we form teams of engineering translators working concurrently with cloud-based CAT tools to maintain terminology consistency and reduce delivery time.
Yes. When requested, we accurately convert imperial and metric units in line with the target market’s applicable metrology standards.
