MotionPoint, a leader in technology and services for website translation, localization and optimization, announced today that Hardinge launched its website in eight languages using MotionPoint\u2019s solution.<\/p>\n

These multilingual sites will help Hardinge, the leading global provider of advanced, high-precision metal-cutting machine tool solutions, to provide consistent, online brand experiences and better serve its global customer base.<\/p>\n

Hardinge selected MotionPoint\u2019s fully turn-key website localization solution to translate, deploy and operate the Spanish, French, German, Italian, Chinese (simplified and traditional), Japanese and Korean versions of its site.<\/p>\n

Hardinge\u2019s customers represent a diverse group of industries, ranging from aerospace and automotive to agriculture, construction and defense. Given the company\u2019s diverse portfolio of global business customers and highly technical product information, it was critical to find a solution that would provide very accurate translations and reflect the quality and precision of Hardinge\u2019s brand.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe needed to create an informative digital space that better served our regional teams, our channel partners, and ultimately our customers,\u201d said Allan Snider, Global Marketing Director at Hardinge. \u201cSo we undertook a project to consolidate our global web presence by combining them into a single corporate website. This central location enables our global customers to discover and interact with all of our products in their local languages.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hardinge leaned on MotionPoint to offer its website \u2013 including product descriptions and technical information \u2013 in its customers\u2019 preferred languages.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur website content is highly technical, so an automated translation solution wasn\u2019t an option,\u201d Snider said. \u201cWe needed to find a partner that could handle technical human translation, and that had a history of doing it. When I looked at the portfolio of customers that MotionPoint has \u2013 and saw that a lot of them were manufacturers with very technical content \u2013 I knew that MotionPoint was the best fit.<\/p>\n

\u201cMotionPoint will help to ensure that our multilingual websites are not only accurate and up to date, but in the language our customers prefer,\u201d Snider continued. \u201cThere are no barriers we won\u2019t overcome to better serve our customers. At the end of the day, they have to be first.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHardinge is a prime example of a company transforming its web presence to compete globally,\u201d said Craig Witt, executive vice president at MotionPoint. \u201cBy offering a consistent brand experience across products and languages, and highly accurate multilingual content delivered via human translation, Hardinge is demonstrating its commitment to its customers around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
