MCAM9 & MOORE CNC JIG GRINDER

[RAJ]

I have come up with a challenge of programming a cnc jig grinder with a hiedenhan control,problem is i have never worked with a jig grinder and I need some starter points as far as programming go's.

will mastercam mill do the job or is there special add ons for this?

is it as simple as chaining the contour to be cut and applying the number of passes needed.

What does my post have to be able to do for a jig grinder is it similar to a cnc mill?

I do have assistance from the guy running this machine but he right now is running this machine manually and i am looking for a cnc point of view,any help will be greatly appreciated.

thanks
