I checked the Internet and I find a lot of online dictionaries for these fields but when asking those companies for a download version they told me that they don't offer this as it is not their intention. Of course, we would be willing to pay for such lists.

Do you have an idea where to find high quality term banks for different industrial areas?

Thanks a lot for your comments and answers.

Not for sale Oct 26, 2016

My glossaries are like the family silver. I would not sell them.

You get .tbx downloads from Microsoft, IATE and https://alexandria-translation-resources.com/

For .tbx and Excel files I recommend Omni-Lookup, a tool with sophisticated wildcard search features. This tool enables you to search several files with a single click. This way you don't miss hits because of a restrictive search policy: Many dictionaries contain many terms that are unrelated to the respective dictionary's topic.

Also, don't most translators' glossaries contain organisation specific terms and language, which can't and shouldn't be shared around?
