This paper investigates laser cladding NiCrFeBSi alloy on valve parts of 1Cr18Ni9Ti and Cr18Ni12Mo3Ti base metal with 5 kW transverse flow CW CO2 laser. A 2-3.5 mm thick cladding layer with smooth surface and fine microstructure is made. Based on the laser cladding experiment, the solidification microstructure control during rapid s...
