Abstract:

This data set contains images produced to test the performance of anomaly and fault detection methods in the context of additive manufacturing. A total of 10 print jobs were executed using a Cincinnati BAAM (model 606) with a Cincinnati medium compression screw. The material used was compounded polylactic acid (PLA) with wood flour as a filler produced by Jabil (80% NatureWorks Ingeo 6060D amorphous PLA, % 100 mesh pine flour from American Wood Fiber). Print sheets were 1/4in polycarbonate.
