This paper describes the technical development of a 3D computer simulation model as a reconstruction of a fulling mill. Details of the fulling mill and its operation are presented, and innovative technical developments to accurately convert existing data (technical drawings, CAD models, etc) into a 3D model are described. Preliminary evaluation of the usefulness of the model as an aid to support the undergraduate teaching module are also presented. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
