Bright control in copper acid bath

We are running a manual chrome plating operation and we are currently looking for a best method to keep the bright level in the copper bath. Can somebody provide recommendations about which procedures you have in place? We have a 3 additives bath, very difficult to keep the balance, other suppliers chemistry recommendation is accepted.

Mr Gonzalez

Please read the manufacturer's data sheet and follow instructions.

Dose all additives in correct quantities at correct timing based on current passed in amp hours.
