Technical and manufacturing translation

Technical and manufacturing translation

Accurately convey specifications and procedures

TanViet helps translate equipment, technology, manufacturing and operations documents. Content is handled using specialist terminology, part numbers, units of measurement and references to facilitate use in technical environments.

Scope of technical and manufacturing translation

01

Equipment documents

Catalogs, specifications, configurations and machinery introduction materials.

02

Operating instructions

Installation, use, maintenance, troubleshooting and operating steps.

03

Manufacturing procedures

Work instructions, quality control and training materials.

04

Technology documents

Explanatory descriptions, technical reports and technology transfer materials.

Reviewing and comparing project documents

Consistency from terminology to part numbers

Component names, product codes, units and symbols must maintain their correct relationships across text, tables and diagrams. References for the equipment model or version help select suitable terminology.

Warnings and operating sequences must be clearly expressed. Translation does not replace technical inspection, design or safety approval; specialist content must be confirmed by the responsible department before use.

Frequently asked questions

Can you translate text in technical diagrams?

Labels and descriptions can be included in the scope. The ability to edit directly depends on the source format and image quality, which are reviewed before work begins.

Are part numbers translated?

Codes and proper names that must be preserved are recorded at the outset. Accompanying descriptions are translated using agreed terminology.

Do you accept documents for multiple machine models?

Work can be organized by model and version. Shared and differing sections need to be marked to preserve the correct information for each device.

What factors determine the quote?

Costs depend on volume, language pair, specialization, formatting and deadline. TanViet reviews the documents before confirming the quote; additional items are clearly discussed as part of the scope.
