Accurate technical translations
Technical documentation that holds up internationally — translated by engineers, checked for consistency and delivered in any format. From a single manual to a full patent dossier, with CAT tools and review by a second specialist.
Ecrivus matches every technical document to a translator with proven domain expertise — mechanical engineering, electronics, chemistry, IT or another specialism. We safeguard consistency with CAT tools, maintain terminology per client and put every translation through a review round by a second specialist.
Ecrivus works with translators who have completed a technical or engineering degree or who bring years of practical experience in a technical field. They understand the context of your document and choose the right terminology for every system, machine or process. We use CAT tools such as Trados Studio and memoQ for terminology management and consistency across multiple documents and projects. Average lead time is 2 to 5 business days, depending on the scope and language pair. Technical translation is in particularly high demand within the technical and engineering sector.

You send us your technical document along with relevant context: the purpose, the audience and any existing glossaries or reference material. The more context we receive, the more accurate the translation.
Your project is assigned to a translator with proven domain expertise: mechanical engineering, electronics, chemistry, IT or another specialism. We match on demonstrated experience, not on availability.
The translator works with professional CAT tools (Trados Studio or memoQ) for consistent terminology, reuse of recurring segments and efficient processing of large documents.
The translation is reviewed for technical accuracy, terminological consistency and suitability for the intended audience — whether that is an installer, a technical specialist or an end user.
You receive the translation in the same format as the original: Word, PDF, InDesign, XML or any other required format. The original layout is preserved wherever possible.
Technical translation does not start with language, but with understanding what needs to be translated. Our translators hold an engineering degree or proven experience in your field, so terminology, context and audience all line up — from the first document to the final addendum.
From engineering background to CAT-tool workflow — every link in our approach is tuned for documents that leave no room for interpretation errors.
Your document is handled by a linguist who knows the field — from gear geometry to network protocols. We select translators on demonstrable industry experience, not on language certificates alone.
We work with Trados Studio and memoQ for terminology management and consistency — combined with human review by a specialist where the technical complexity or volume requires it. Technology for speed, people for precision.
From German and Japanese to Korean and Czech: we have technically specialised translators for more than 225 languages.
Manuals, patent dossiers, product specifications, technical reports — we handle every common format and preserve the original layout.
Every technical translation runs through the same quality process — domain experts, per-client terminology management and review by a second specialist where risk profile or volume requires it.
A selection of recently delivered technical translation projects — from a single manual to multilingual product documentation. Each case began with a single quote request.
Mechanical engineering A Dutch machine builder needed full operating manuals translated into German, in line with the EU Machinery Directive. Including descriptions of technical illustrations and safety warnings.
Software & SaaS A technology company had API documentation, user guides and release notes translated into five languages with automated terminology control.
Medical & patents The R&D department of a medical-technology company had a patent family translated, including the safety report and claim structure. Consistent terminology across the entire dossier and specialist review of the legal-technical content.
We translate every type of technical documentation — from concise specifications to thousand-page manuals, always preserving terminology, layout and technical accuracy.
