Warum Secure editing of multilingual SIMATIC configurations?

The DCC Translation Editor 5.0 enables the reliable and rapid translation of text exports from multilingual Siemens automation projects. The product supports a translation workflow that preserves formatting and enhances translation quality for Siemens applications such as WinCC Unified, WinCC (TIA Portal), WinCC V7/V8, and PCS 7. It is designed for translators, localization managers responsible for quality assurance, and commissioning engineers.

Vorteile

Manually editing thousands of text elements in Excel can easily lead to errors during translation: numbers are altered, placeholders are deleted, text becomes too long for the user interface, or parts of it remain untranslated.
The DCC Translation Editor was developed to solve these problems.
Translations created outside the project environment using the DCC Translation Editor can be edited with complete confidence:
The formatting and file structure are protected against accidental changes.
Translated files can be easily imported back into the original project.
100% quality assurance for the translation of project texts:
The tool is certified by Siemens. It automatically detects translation errors, incorrect numerical values, missing punctuation marks, and untranslated text segments.
Texts that are too long for the HMI fields are highlighted.
The time required for implementation is significantly reduced:
Thanks to the clear, table-based layout, even large-scale SIMATIC projects can be edited with ease.
Special features include search and replace, comprehensive filtering options, and automatic translation using DeepL, Google or Microsoft.

Besondere Funktionen

Quality assurance filters

Seven quality assurance filters detect translation errors, incorrect numerical data, and missing punctuation marks.
The localization manager does not require foreign language skills to assess and improve the formal quality of the translation.

Translations that are too long are highlighted

By highlighting translations that exceed the permitted text field, translators can check the accuracy of the translation as they work.
This ensures that the text is displayed correctly in the process visualization. A subsequent HMI acceptance test ensures that the localization is flawless.

File format consistency

The translation is carried out independently of the project environment. The integrity of the file formats is maintained throughout the entire process.
Reliable post-processing of the files is guaranteed: the translated texts can be easily imported into the original project.

Optional: Automatic, AI-generated translation

DeepL Pro, Microsoft Translator, and Google Translate are integrated via API keys.
This makes a quick, rough translation of the project texts available at the touch of a button.

Case Study

Daily HMI adjustments on the construction site

Localization is carried out independently of HMI development.
Maximum autonomy for daily changes: Commissioning engineers seamlessly integrate UI text, warning messages, notifications and text lists.

Accelerated HMI localization

Using the translation editor, the commissioned translation agency is able to reduce the time required to translate the TIA V20 HMI for a measuring system for axle and steering components into Italian by 30 percent.
