HEPCO was established and registered in 1972, with the intention of assembly & production of heavy equipment.[1] In 1975 HEPCO resumed operation in its premises in Arak consistory of 1000,000 square meters of land & 40,000 square meters of production hall in collaboration with licencors; namely : Navistar International, Dynapac, Poclain, Sakai Heavy Industries and Lokomo.

In 1984, HEPCO development project was designed in collaboration with Liebherr & Volvo companies, aiming at fabrication of steel structures of construction equipment.

The project recalled for construction of a 60,000 square meter hall and installation of numbers of modern cutting, welding and milling machines, capable of production 2100 units of equipment, in the first phase.
