Maximizing the reliability of rotating equipment!

Profile

HECO provides solutions, prevention, and confidence.

HECO helps industrial plants utilize more dependable motors and equipment. Through a mix of Repair, Product Sales, Field Service, Predictive, and Equipment Management, we help our clients
do three things better:

1. - See what’s going on with their machines and be prepared for what is to come. Where are your issues? What can be done to prevent it?

2. - Get rid of the issue by either doing the work, coming up with options, or telling you what needs to be done.

3. - Stop the issue from happening again by making sure anything that is done is done the right way.

Our promise is to provide our customers peace of mind and confidence that their motors and equipment will operate effectively, have longevity, and reduce total cost of ownership!

    Instead of focusing on Sensors, Gateways, Hardware, Software, and Platforms; APOLLO (from HECO) is changing the focus to utilizing remote technologies to catch failures before they occur – its just that simple....

  • APOLLO allows you to:

    • MINIMIZE UNPLANNED DOWNTIME – Elevate maintenance from reactive or preventive systems to maintenance schemes based on actual asset health, lowering costs and increasing productivity.
    • REDUCE MANUAL MONITORING COSTS – Reduce time spent on manually monitoring equipment in the plant floor with more frequent asset health measurement to detect and correct potential issues.
    • REDUCE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR COSTS – Control repair and maintenance costs by fixing problems before catastrophic failure; IIoT empowered insight allows optimization of parts & capacity.
    • OPTIMIZE PLANNED DOWNTIME – Remote condition monitoring in combination with predictive AI model allows to identify and act upon abnormal asset behavior before they cause downtime.
    • OPTIMIZE PRODUCTION LEVELS – Optimize production levels by leveraging asset data and adjusting production to efficient yet sustainable levels until the next planned maintenance outage.
