A simplified mechanism to generate, using data of a model, one or more pour units, a pour unit indicating one or more objects and/or one or more object parts that are intended to be manufacture by a pour, is provided. In the mechanism, a connectivity graph is created for one or more objects modeling a continuous cast product. Then it is checked whether or not the pour break splits the graph into two or more separate graphs. If it splits, two pour units are created on the basis of the two or more separate graphs.
