Dear Expert, 

After Filling & Capping of  Weld Metal, During % Ferrite check via Feritoscope  values are showing less than requirement, How ever all other test i.e. Hardness, PMI etc. are well accepted. 
Kindly advice on  possible root cause as well as tips to achieve high Ferrite 
Please find below details for your quick ref. 
 Material Grade - SDSS -UNS s32760
Joint type -Pipe - Butt weld - 18 mm thick 
Welding Process - GTAW + SMAW 
Welding Consumable - ER 2594 + E 2594-15
% Ferrite - GTAW ( Root ) - 35%, SMAW ( Capping) - 25 -28 %, Base metal - 35to 40%, HAZ - 32 to 35% 
% Ferrite - Spec Req - 30  to 70%
Inerpass mentained - 100°C for GTAW, 120°C for SMAW
Heat input - GTAW - 0.8 to 1 KJ/mm
SMAW - 1.2 KJ/mm
