Translating documents for engineering applications requires specialist knowledge and close attention to detail with no room for error. Using technical terminology that is often unique to your company can pose a challenge for translators, and for this reason, we use a network of in-market engineering experts with a high level of experience of working within your sector.

ALM Translations’ solid background in quality document translation has been instrumental in securing the success of our clients across the globe, making us the go-to agency for engineering translations

What work does ALM do in the engineering sector?

ALM has a proven track record in all types of technical documentation and technical engineering areas including:

Multilingual shop manuals

Shop manuals are used throughout the world in various settings, and our translators with relevant engineering backgrounds ensure manuals are localised to use the most relevant terminology, which often changes quite significantly from market to market. As with all technical documentation, the need for clear and unambiguous language is high.

Documentation translation for specialist machinery

Accompanying documentation for specialist machinery such as crane equipment, plant machinery and food processing devices is required to ensure the health and safety of its users, correct operation of machinery and ongoing servicing requirements.

Engineering specifications

For projects such as bridge construction and waterways, precise engineering specifications are created, and adherence to these specifications is often vital to the success of the project. This can be especially challenging in overseas settings, where contractors may not speak English. ALM’s specialists can provide precise engineering specification translation to keep even the largest projects safely on track.

Technical Proposals

Using the best-in-market translators, ALM gives our engineering partners a competitive edge when it comes to supporting multilingual technical proposals.

Steam technology

Steam technology is used in almost every industrial process across the world, used for heat processes, to concentrate and distil liquids, or is used directly as a feedstock. All of the major industrial energy users devote significant proportions of their fossil fuel consumption to steam production, including food processing, pulp and paper manufacturing, chemical production, petroleum refining and primary metal manipulation. With such a diverse range of applications, using translators with hands-on experience in these processes is one of the reasons ALM is trusted to provide expert engineering translation.

Typesetting and format

For the finishing touch to translated manuals, user guides and marketing materials, ALM’s multilingual typesetting service ensures that your documentation is delivered in a like-for-like format. Desktop Publishing specialists understand the constraints of certain languages and can work in formats such as FrameMaker, InDesign and are also able to localise CAD drawings.

Using the latest technology combined with human expertise

ALM Translations offers technical accuracy, ensuring your documents are understood by your intended audience. Expert human translators combined with Translation Memory software and terminology systems are used for the best results. This ensures that your specific technical terminology is used across all of your translations for the sake of consistency and accuracy.
