Translation Turnaround Times
Planning your IFU translation, technical manual, or regulatory submission timeline? Use our calculator below for instant delivery estimates for your medical device, healthcare, engineering, or technical translation project.
Important Considerations
These are standard delivery times. For urgent regulatory submissions or time-critical technical documentation, we can assemble specialist translator teams for faster delivery – contact us for specific timescales.
For projects requiring DTP or formatting, please contact us for timing estimates. Desktop publishing adds layout adaptation time, particularly for German or Polish where text expansion is significant.
Complex medical device, pharmaceutical, engineering or technical content may require additional review time. Regulatory submissions, clinical evaluation reports, technical specifications, and specialist documentation benefit from enhanced quality assurance processes.
Early submission allows for thorough quality checks and client review cycles. We recommend building in time for internal review, particularly for regulatory documentation or technical manuals requiring stakeholder sign-off.

Why Our Translation Turnaround Times Improve
Our translation technology delivers faster turnaround times with every project:
Translation Memory Software stores your approved content, regulatory phrases, technical terminology, and product specifications. For manufacturers with product families—whether medical devices or industrial equipment—this reduces translation time by 40-60% on subsequent projects.
Terminology Management ensures consistent translation of your sector-specific terms across all documentation, eliminating time-consuming review cycles for both healthcare and engineering content.
AI-Assisted Neural Machine Translation provides specialist translators with intelligent drafts for routine content, allowing them to focus expertise on complex technical passages, safety-critical instructions, and regulatory requirements.
The result? The more translation we complete together, the faster your turnaround times become as our systems learn your terminology and requirements—whether you’re manufacturing medical devices, telecommunications equipment, or industrial machinery.
