Technical translation services
Your next manual should start with what the previous release already taught you.
DEMA works with manufacturers that translate manuals, interfaces, declarations and technical files continuously. Product terminology, translation memory, QA rules and reviewer corrections stay connected so each release begins with validated knowledge instead of a blank page.
Technical language is repetitive by design, and that is an advantage only if the organisation retains and reuses approved terminology and translated segments. Without that control, the same component can acquire different names across products, markets and years.
Technical documentation carries product, safety and compliance consequences.

Safety-critical terminology
Component names, warnings and operating instructions must remain consistent across manuals, interfaces and service content.
Regulatory context
Machinery and CE documentation lives inside defined regulatory and standards environments; Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 applies from 20 January 2027.
Complex file production
Manuals, diagrams, HMI strings and structured authoring formats require language, file engineering and DTP to work together.
The workflow starts with the document type and intended use.
These are the materials we translate most often.
Specialised language is managed as a process, not a last-minute check.
Prepare the documentation set
Identify product family, target markets, source formats, deadlines, existing TMs and terminology.
Build or clean the linguistic assets
Align legacy translations where useful, validate glossary entries and preserve reusable technical language.
Translate with specialist resources
Use technical translators or controlled MTPE according to document type, scale and risk.
Apply systematic QA
Check glossary compliance, numbers, tags, formatting and consistency of repeated instructions.
Complete client review and production
Integrate engineer/dealer review where required, then deliver the file through DTP or structured-format production.
What DEMA keeps visible through the project.
Technical terminology
Dedicated terminology and stable linguist pools reduce drift across product families and release cycles.
QA for hard errors
Automated checks target numbers, tags, formatting and glossary use; human revisers remain responsible for meaning.
Native-format continuity
CAT-tool, structured-authoring and DTP workflows protect the source-to-target file round trip.
Client ownership
Translation memory, glossaries and term bases remain client assets, available in portable formats.
TUBE for continuous technical documentation
TUBE is the strongest fit where manuals and product documentation repeat across releases. Your glossary and translation memory control machine translation, so every release builds on the last.
Discover TUBE →Glossary-controlled machine translation
Machine translation follows your approved component and process terminology.
A memory that grows
Every approved translation updates your translation memory, so repeated content is reused in future releases.
Leverage reporting
Reuse trends can be made visible quarter over quarter, helping identify whether authoring drift or TM hygiene is affecting efficiency.
Long-term value is visible in reliability and content that works in-market.
โWe have been working with DEMA for a few years now on the translation of manuals... Our native-speaking dealers have also praised the quality and accuracy of the translations.โ

Specialised content usually needs a more precise scope before production starts.
Can you work with our existing manuals and translation memories?
Yes. Legacy bilingual documentation can be assessed for alignment, and existing TMs/glossaries can be imported or cleaned rather than discarded.
Do you handle diagrams and final manual layout?
Yes. Technical translation can be connected to multilingual DTP for callouts, diagrams, tables and print-ready or digital manuals.
Can our engineers review terminology?
Yes. Your engineers can approve the glossary we build for you, and their terminology decisions then control every translation.
Why is the 2027 Machinery Regulation relevant to translation workflows?
Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 applies from 20 January 2027. For manufacturers, it is a useful deadline for reviewing how technical documentation, terminology and multilingual releases are controlled.
Bring the document, the market and the risk.
We will map the linguistic, review, technology and publication steps around the way the content is actually used, rather than forcing it into a generic translation workflow.
