Ball Screw Drive Surface Defect Dataset for Classification

The dataset contains of 21835 150x150 Pixel RGB images of the surface of Ball Screw Drives. 11075 of these images are images without surface defects whereas the rest shows images with surface defects in form of so called pittings. So the dataset is evenly split over the classes. Pittings result from surface disruption and can ultimately lead to the breakdown of the component. To keep the availability of machines high it is important to find surface defects in time. The here presented dataset gives researchers and practitioners the possibility to train and test models for the classification of surface defects on machine tool elements.
