In the laser welding of the Stainless Steel AISI 409, in the melting zone once solidified, it appear some precipitations quite fine. These precipitations harden the zone and turn the welding brittle. The probable origin of the precipitations is related to titanium carbonitride.
We would like to know if the best way to control the influence of the precipitations is by controlling the cooling rate, of if there's another way.
