Spanish term

registro mecanizado

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks Homologation
From a document from Spain for translation to British English. All relating to approvals for motor vehicles.

"Copia del registro mecanizado según el Anexo XII del R.D. 750/2010 de las tarjetas ITV emitidas."

The part of the Royal Decree referred to says:

"1.3.1 El fabricante llevará un registro mecanizado de los certificados expedidos en soporte papel, o un registro informatizado en el caso de tarjetas ITV expedidas en soporte electrónico, que permita verificar su autenticidad.

El registro a que se refiere el párrafo anterior se ordenará por número del certificado de la tarjeta ITV y en él deberán figurar la fecha de expedición de la tarjeta, así como el número de identificación del vehículo (VIN), tipo y contraseña de homologación del vehículo."

So is it a typed/printed register?

Discussion

BristolTEc (asker) Oct 8, 2021:
I think it suggests that there is one type of "registro" if the "certificates" are issued on paper, but if the "tarjetas ITV" (roadworthiness test cards) are issued electronically the "registro" will be computerised, hence my thinking that "mecanizado" may mean paper?

I don't see how it's different from "registro informatizado" later in the sentence.

paper copy of the record of vehicle certification and inspection

I know my suggestion is kind of lengthy, but Based on the Royal Decree description, a registro mecanizado contains information specific to Spain that doesn't necessarily have an exact equivalent in other languages. However, "paper copy of the record of vehicle certification and inspection" may capture the meaning here because this document contains info about the ITV inspection and the certification/approval of the vehicle after production.
Peer comment(s):

agree neilmac : This may be what they mean here, although I don't know why they didn't just say "en papel" o "(en formato) impreso" if they mean a hardcopy…

automated registration

The vehicle manufacturer has an automated registration of the certificates issued on paper, or on computerized, digital format registration, where there are cards or documents which show the vehicle technical inspection, issued on digital format, to verify the identity of the vehicle. The technical inspection document for the vehicle has its own certificate number, with the date on which it was issued, as well as the vehicle identification number, type, brand-name, make and code of the vehicle.

(ES: El fabricante del vehículo tiene un registro automatizado de los certificados expedidos, en el papel o en el formato digital (informatizado) del registro, donde hay tarjetas o documentos que muestran la inspección técnica del vehículo (ITV) expedidos en un formato digital, para verificar la identidad del vehículo. El documento de la inspección técnica del vehículo tiene su proprio número de certificado, con la fecha en la cual fue expedida, junto con su número de identificación, tipo, marca de fabricante, diseño y el código del vehículo.)
