Method and apparatus for creating layout model, computer product, and method of manufacturing device

摘要

A layout-model creating apparatus creates a layout-model for a mechanical computer-aided design from component information including heights and layout information of components created by an electrical computer-aided design. A height determining unit determines whether a height of a component is equal to or lower than a specified height. A three-dimensional-model creating unit creates a three-dimensional model by excluding a component of which the height is determined to be equal to or lower than the specified height.
