3D milling bows / Recurve Bow / Making Recurve Bows
The company Falkenholz bow making produces individual recurve bows or sport bows for a wide sportive oriented global audience, with great success.
Countless different types of wood for the production of an recurve bow
When 3D milling your sport bows the choice of material for making bows, probably comes first. Thus, the company manufactures not only produce bows out of Makassar, Zirikote, birdseye maple and Limba heartwood or Vavona. Even native varieties, such as poplar, sycamore and yew, are ideally suited for manufacturing a sports bow.
The software generates the file for 3D milling
The raw data (STL files) for sport bows were created in a 3D CAD software. Then the stl files are converted into a millable DIN ISO file using the software DeskProto (supporting a fourth axis), which is finally processed by the CAM software WinPC-NC and is transferred as G code milling file to the CNC machine, which then processes the workpiece.
