The 19th Asian Games opened in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province on the evening of September 23, 2023.I watched the opening ceremony live, and it was amazing.

When the athletes entered the field, the fan-shaped guide cards held by the girls were hollowed out, carved with osmanthus flowers, peony patterns and Qiantang tides, which you may not expect to be 3D printed, really beautiful.

In some large-scale games, the application of 3D printing technology is not uncommon, and in the Tokyo Olympics, Beijing Winter Olympics and other competitions, 3D printing technology has been deeply involved. 3D printing can break through the traditional manufacturing process, make a variety of imaginative designs and ideas become a reality, 3D printing can also allow athletes to use lighter equipment, stronger materials, better performance, to help athletes play the best competitive level.
