A die assembly apparatus is provided with a plurality of die segments that move on guides from open to closed positions. Movement from the open to the closed positions for each die segment is along the path that extends inward toward a central axis and toward a base plate. A compression member provides a retaining force along the central axis to compress the die segments between limited surface areas at the top and bottom portions of the die segments. Molten wax is injected into an injection port so that the molten wax is first introduced into the die cavity at the bottom portion of the die cavity. Hydraulic actuators are used to move the die segments from the open to the closed positions and vice versa.
