Patent Drawings & Formula Translation Cost Factors

 Artlangs Translation team boasts in-depth knowledge of various industries and regulations, enabling us to translate a wide range of patent documents, including applications, specifications, and patent valuation reports. Translation of patent drawings and formulas usually incurs additional charges.

Charging Based on Pages or Drawings

Drawings: If charged by the page, the translation of patent drawings may involve extra fees calculated according to the complexity and number of pages. Simple line drawings may cost relatively less per page, while complex mechanical assembly drawings, circuit diagrams, or chemical structure diagrams will command higher fees per page.

Formulas: For patents with a large number of formulas, charges may be based on the quantity of formulas. Generally, simple mathematical formulas may cost 5 - 10 yuan each, while complex physical, chemical formulas, or special formulas in professional fields may cost 10 - 20 yuan each. If formulas are embedded in complex charts, the fees may be charged according to the standards for complex drawings.

Charging Based on Formatting Difficulty

If patent drawings and formulas require complex formatting to maintain their original clarity and accuracy in the translated document, the translation agency will charge additional fees based on the formatting difficulty.

Charging Based on Professional Field Difficulty

The translation difficulty of patent drawings and formulas varies across different professional fields, leading to differences in charges. In highly technical fields such as biopharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and aerospace, drawings and formulas often involve highly specialized terminology and concepts, making translation challenging and resulting in higher fees.

Key Factors Affecting Prices

Language and Quality Level: Different languages and translation quality levels directly lead to variations in translation fees. For example, in Chinese-to-English translation, the price for the standard level is 170 - 200 yuan per thousand words, for the professional level, it's 210 - 260 yuan per thousand words, and for the publication level, it can be as high as 310 - 500 yuan per thousand words.

Translator's Qualifications: The translator's qualifications and experience are also crucial factors determining the translation fees. Mid-level translators are typically suitable for translating general technical and business documents. Senior translators can handle more demanding professional fields, while expert translators specialize in accurately translating highly difficult and technical documents.

Patent Type: Different types of patents have different charging standards due to variations in the complexity and professionalism of their content. For instance, biopharmaceutical patents, because of their high level of specialization, usually have higher translation fees, possibly ranging from 230 to 550 yuan per thousand words.

In today's increasingly globalized world, patents have become a vital weapon for enterprises in technological innovation and market competition. However, to bring these precious innovative achievements to the global market, patent translation has become an indispensable link.
