This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of the accuracy of 3D scanning methods using various devices and software to generate 3D models. The resulting models were compared to their corresponding Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models to quantify discrepancies. The primary objective was to assess potential errors, benefits, and limitations of each scanning method, providing insights for future research and development. A switch, chosen as the test object for its moderate complexity and size, enabled a thorough assessment under realistic conditions. The analysis reveals the strengths and limitations of each scanning method, guiding researchers and developers in selecting the most suitable techniques for specific applications. Additionally, the study underscores the importance of device and software parameters on the accuracy of 3D models, offering a comprehensive evaluation of effective techniques for 3D model.
