Fusion Plating — Aluminum Anodizing Process Pack
Part of the Fusion Plating product family by Nexa Systems Inc.
Data-only module that plugs into the fusion_plating core and seeds the
process taxonomy and bath chemistry schemas specific to aluminum anodizing.

Bath parameters shipped
Sulfuric acid concentration, dissolved aluminum, bath temperatures (Type II room-temp and Type III chilled), current density, voltage, chromic acid (Type I), seal bath temperature and pH, nickel acetate concentration, and dye concentration/temperature. Per-bath target overrides happen on the bath or recipe records in the core.
Hazard awareness
- Type I (chromic acid) carries the same Cr(VI) carcinogen warnings as chrome plating. NPRI Part 1B reportable, Toronto Ch. 681 limits apply, mandatory mist suppression and medical surveillance. Prefer Type II wherever customer spec allows.
- Type II / Type III sulfuric baths are severe splash hazards. Acid-resistant PPE, eyewash within 10 seconds travel, safety shower.
- Type III chilled bath requires mandatory refrigeration and arc flash PPE at rectifier voltages up to 90 V+.
- Nickel acetate seal is a WHMIS 2015 Category 1A sensitizer/carcinogen, subject to Ontario Reg. 833 air monitoring.
