We translate into more than 50 languages, including all Eastern and Western European languages as well as a large number of Asian and Middle- or Far Eastern languages.
Our translators are qualified engineers with backgrounds in mechanical engineering and combustion engine design, as well as automotive and industrial equipment.
Absolute accuracy and meticulous care are a vital requirement for translations in this field, and this is ensured by our top translators.
Each project is assigned based on an understanding of engineering that encompasses a wide range of industrial knowledge.
Our translators and proofreaders have comprehensive knowledge of the energy industry and proven expertise in the field.
Many of the retail sector’s top players count on Tilti Systems to accurately localize their CI, marketing messages and product descriptions for new markets.
Various patent agencies as well as legal and business advisors contact us for translations of all kind of contracts, patents and certificates.
We translate various types of technical documentation, including manuals and instructions for use, as well as reference and training materials.
This project was ordered by one of the largest translation and localization agencies in Europe with end-clients all over the world. Their projects always require special attention because of specific formats and subjects, mainly medical or technical, quick turnaround and immediate reaction to all their queries. On top of this, a high quality translation is expected, which is being ensured by several QA stages throughout each translation project.
Key challenges for this project and client are:
The project consisted of a 800 pages file converted from InDesign into .ttx format – 110 000 words InDesign translation and proofreading as well as post- DTP check into Estonian language within 20 days turnaround.
A workflow for this project included InDesign translation with the help of reference material provided by the client, proofreading, simultaneous QA performed both by Tilti Systems and the client, immediate implementation of necessary changes, timely partial deliveries and post-DTP check of the final product.
To complete this task, a team of translators and proofreaders was selected. Their qualification and experience in medical translations had to be proven by providing CVs and test translations. A project schedule was created and confirmed both by the translators and the client, which not only required intense communication but also good planning skills and careful attention of the project manager.
Translators delivered the translated files in batches which were first checked internally by Tilti Systems Quality Assurance department and then given to the external proofreaders. In the meanwhile, the client was performing their own QA on delivered batches, and our translators had to simultaneously apply client’s suggested changes to their work. Thanks to our internal project workflow and dedicated work of our team and translators, we were able to meet the deadlines and high quality standards set by the client.
The project was ordered by a middlesize language service provider based in Italy and servicing predominantly technical manufacturing and engineering companies. The end-client is an international manufacturer and supplier of commercial trucks, parts and diesel engines. The production of the company is being used in more than 30 countries all around the world.
The main challenges of their industry are related to the fact, that for each truck, vehicle or engine in all the countries the company manufactures its production for, they must prepare technical documentation in the local language (in our case: Italian > Czech, Italian > Polish).
Thus, for us, the main challenge for this client has always been the large amount of complicated technical texts and short turnaround time. As such large translations can only be done by groups of several translators, maintaining the consistency of the translations is one of the greatest challenges.
Typical workflow for this project included translation with the help of a central server-based TM, proofreading, final QA and delivery.
To achieve high turnaround, top quality and meet the deadline, we decided to involve 6 carefully selected translators for each language combination.
The terminology consistency was maintained by the usage of central server-based TM that enabled translators to access the client’s TM on their server while they were translating. All the translators were using the same version of SDL Trados to ensure that the TM will be updated correctly.
Translators delivered the translated files in batches which were then assigned to the proofreaders. By organizing a simultaneous workflow of translation, proofreading, and final QA we were able to meet the deadlines set by the client. With the help of the server-based TM the client was sure that the preferred terminology was used throughout the documentation and it remained consistent. Efficient and careful project management ensured that the client received the files back in exactly same format and folder structure as originally.
