A cam-follower mechanism experiment is described that involves the calibration of several mechanical transducers and computerized data acquisition. Laboratory measurements are followed by modeling the experiment using multi-body simulation software (VisualNastran 4D and Working Model 2D). Students compare their simulations with the measured results and learn about the benefits of integrating physical experiments with virtual experiments. Their confidence in the results obtained through simulation, as well as their preference for performing either one of both type of experiments are surveyed.
