Robot manuals, MES/SCADA interfaces and CE machinery files — translated into the language of the destination market, with safety terminology mapped to the governing standard.
Machinery documentation has to reach the operator in a language they actually read. This is a market-access requirement, not a preference — equipment can be held up over documentation that is otherwise complete.
Terms used in safety instructions map to specific wording in the governing standard. Translating them freely — even accurately in a general sense — breaks the link between your documentation and the standard it is supposed to demonstrate conformity with.
An MES or SCADA screen and the manual describing it are usually translated as separate jobs, often at different times. The operator then reads one term on screen and another in the manual, which is exactly when a procedure gets performed wrong.
Challenge A large industrial-robot manufacturer going global needed equipment manuals and safety files maintained across many markets without terminology drifting between revisions.
Solution A maintained termbase and translation memory across 12 languages, with expert review on safety-critical content and format restoration for every market.
