TRANSLATIONS FOR<br />
THE MANUFACTURING<br />
INDUSTRY
Our mission is to enable you to<br />
speak clearly to your customers<br />
TTC wetranslate provides technical<br />
translations for a wide variety of global<br />
corporations such as Rolls-Royce, Alstom<br />
and Bechtel. <strong>The</strong> specialties covered include<br />
but are not limited to mechanical and civil<br />
engineering, automotive engineering,<br />
telecoms, printing machinery, food<br />
processing, storage and materials handling,<br />
logistics and transport, electronics, power<br />
generation, medical equipment and<br />
pharmaceuticals.<br />
Translating technical material demands<br />
a high level of understanding and a<br />
thorough knowledge of the subject. Patent<br />
specifications and claims are generally<br />
intricate in nature and the translated patent<br />
is a legal document. Software localisation, a<br />
key aspect of technical translation, requires<br />
a systematic approach to the translation and<br />
testing of the software itself, together with<br />
its related material such as online help<br />
and documentation.<br />
Our extensive, well-maintained database<br />
allows us to select professionals with<br />
appropriate qualifications and experience.<br />
We can also monitor and record their<br />
performance on a project-by-project basis.<br />
Your technical output is translated and<br />
proofread by nationals at every stage.<br />
Quality control is aided by building up<br />
specialist glossaries, working with your<br />
partner companies in overseas sales<br />
territories and deploying translation<br />
memories to aid consistency and<br />
reduce costs.<br />
“Avon Protection have been using TTC<br />
wetranslate for many years now. We<br />
are extremely happy with the service<br />
we receive from them. <strong>The</strong> quote<br />
turnaround time is quick within 24<br />
hours which makes the process much<br />
easier for Avon when working to a quick<br />
turnaround in translations.”<br />
Julia Green –<br />
EMEA Marketing Manager<br />
“ Were fast in responding to my quote request – I<br />
received my quote promptly. <strong>The</strong> TTC wetranslate<br />
project manager kept me informed very well and<br />
I can rate TTC as excellent in meeting deadlines.<br />
I am very likely to use your services in the future.<br />
I can describe my overall project management<br />
experience with TTC wetranslate as professional,<br />
prompt and effective. In brief: Good work. On time<br />
and the translation looks great. Thank you.”<br />

2 TRANSLATIONS FOR MANUFACTURING
Working clearly with<br />
technical authors<br />
We deploy specialists in science, engineering,<br />
electronics, ICT, pharmaceuticals and more<br />
specifically, in your business. Selection of the<br />
right specialist is the vital first step in our<br />
quality control procedure.<br />
<strong>The</strong> importance of consistent terminology<br />
as well as the formulaic and repetitive nature<br />
of technical writing makes CAT tools using<br />
translation memories and terminology<br />
databases appropriate.<br />
‘Every picture tells a story’. <strong>For</strong> technical<br />
authors, the visuals matter as much as<br />
the words.<br />
We prepare and integrate all visual<br />
material so as to provide a complete<br />
package, identical to the source text but<br />
in multiple languages. Familiarity with all<br />
the leading DTP packages is an important<br />
element of our offer. <strong>For</strong> example, if you<br />
send us a document in InDesign, you’ll<br />
get an InDesign document back.<br />
Correctly localised software is key. Software<br />
strings should be accurate, consistent,<br />
unambiguous and (often) abbreviated to<br />
fit predetermined fields. We have vast<br />
experience with MMI issues such as control<br />
screens and displays and status, error<br />
or help messages. Our processes ensure<br />
consistency; so that, for example, translated<br />
screenshots match your online help manuals.<br />
“ We have been working with TTC wetranslate / Bedford <strong>Translations</strong> for over 10 years.<br />
I have received prompt replies to my quote enquiries, and I have been kept very well<br />
informed by the TTC team. I can say that they provide extremely good service and really<br />
the only place that we use for translations. As always, incredibly swift turn around for the<br />
job required.”

someone who is usually translating into their<br />
native language – so they’ll spot this kind of<br />
issue long before you spend money on print,<br />
broadcast media and PR.<br />

you need an in-depth knowledge of the culture<br />
and customs of your target country and ensure<br />
that your translations have the intended effect.<br />
TECHNICAL DATA SHEETS<br />
TALKING TECHNICAL<br />
Incorrect terminology can be disastrous;<br />
an incorrect translation in maintenance or<br />
operating manuals can be very dangerous<br />
for the end user. Precise translations are<br />
essential to ensure that instructions are<br />
clear for native speakers to understand,<br />
and for your product to succeed.<br />
Your translations will be undertaken by<br />
a translator who is native to your target<br />
country and has the creative flair to translate<br />
your intended message for press releases,<br />
questionnaires, emails, corporate brochures,<br />
adverts and leaflets.<br />
Let TTC wetranslate help you break into the<br />
global market successfully.<br />
“ Our project involved a large number of<br />

my quote promptly. <strong>The</strong> TTC wetranslate<br />
project manager kept me informed very<br />

meeting deadlines. I am very likely to use<br />
your services in the future. I can describe<br />
my overall project management experience<br />
with TTC wetranslate as professional,<br />
prompt and effective. ”<br />

CREATING A BETTER USER EXPERIENCE<br />
When you have technical material that<br />
needs to be translated accuracy is critical.<br />
It’s not just a case of ‘getting the message<br />
across’, like all engineering projects<br />
precision is essential.<br />
Engineering manuals, instructions, reports<br />
and input to shared global projects all need<br />
to be exact – there really is no room for<br />
error. When your experts in engineering have<br />
done their work our experts in language will<br />
translate their work into the language of the<br />
people who need the information.<br />
“<strong>For</strong> some years now Bedford <strong>Translations</strong> (now part of TTC<br />
wetranslate) have been translating almost all of our material<br />
for foreign markets into English – including our Website, Flyers,<br />
Press Releases, White Papers, Case Studies and much more.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir cooperation with us could not be bettered. <strong>The</strong> texts are<br />
always returned in good time and are, for all their often highly<br />
complicated technical nature, of highest quality with regards to<br />
content and style.”<br />

COMPLEX TERMINOLOGY, PRECISE TRANSLATIONS<br />
Product terminology is often complex. Our expert translators use translation memory (TM)<br />
tools and also terminology databases. This means that you will receive consistent, high quality,<br />
technical translations specific to your industry. TTC wetranslates track record is trusted by<br />

PATENTS<br />
PROTECTING YOUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY<br />
Taking out a patent on new intellectual property is an exciting endeavour. You or your<br />
organisation has created a new product or process and needs to tell the world about your<br />
creation while maintaining your legal rights. Just filing the patent application itself is a complex<br />
process involving legal experts, and that is not to mention the painstakingly detailed technical<br />
information you must provide when describing your creation in the patent application.<br />
Translating the language of a patent requires specific technical knowledge and in many cases,<br />
knowledge of legal terminology. A small mistake can cost millions of pounds and negate years<br />
of research, which is why it is imperative to hire experienced, knowledgeable and highly trained<br />
translators for all patent translation.<br />
SOFTWARE<br />
ENGAGE WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS IN THEIR LANGUAGE<br />
Software localisation, a key aspect of technical translation, requires a systematic approach to the<br />
translation and testing of the software itself, together with its related material such as online help<br />
and documentation. Correctly translated menu items and user interface will create a better user<br />
experience.<br />
