Requirements & Challenges
MLC has been a language partner of McConnel for the past few years, primarily helping them export their comprehensive range of Power Arms to new markets. McConnel required translation services to make their operating manuals available in multiple languages for their international customers. In addition to translations, high-level proofreading was provided as part of our quality assurance process.
The main challenge was to provide accurate translations, which contained technical terminology specific to the agriculture and machinery industry. The translations had to be precise and consistent across different languages, including French, Spanish, Russian, Dutch, Slovenian, and Lithuanian. This has been an ongoing endeavour, with a substantial volume of content and a total of 79,000 words translated so far.

The need for clinical trial translations is evident with more of these research studies conducted in developing countries that do not necessarily speak English. To bridge the gap in...

This can range from large scale manufacturing to ordering screens in fast food restaurants. The objective for businesses seems clear – the use of machines and computer software can speed up the process while cutting the cost of employing large numbers of...
Patient Consent Form Translation
Why is translating patient consent forms in a simple language so important? Sometimes as the nature of a procedure is often very technical, it is important that the patient fully understands simply what the procedure involves so as they are fully aware of how the procedure will work, what is expected of them doing it, what the potential consequences might be - if it is a new drug they are trialling or a vaccine, is there potential that the...
