Today the specific outputs of modern supercharger DI diesel engine for passenger cars reach values exceeding 50kw/1. By development of the articulated piston, specific output of up to 70kw/1 are sought. In doing so, peak cylinder pressure increases from the current 14-16MPa to 18-20MPa. The Articulated piston was composed Al cast skirt part and steel forged crown part. We have the target fer the design of forging process and die of the steel forged crown part. The design parameters of the forging process of the piston were obtained by the forging industry experiences and our experimental data and analysis result of finite element simulation. Especially, the design parameter of preform in blocker die was decided by finite element simulation using numerical package DEFROM3D. And also we can verify the design parameter by conducting visio-plasticity test using plasticine material. When we compared the results of analysis and experiment, a metal flow and load curve showed good agreement. Through this research, we could design optimal preform shape of articulated piston for this supercharged DI diesel engine.
