The aim of this paper is to determine a suitable structural size of a straw collector. Modeling, simulation and diagnosis were done by using the SolidWorks software. The test was operated in the environment of KhonKaen province which has the maximum soil stress of 240 kPa at the moisture content of 2 percent (the worst condition). The optimum design was done by varying the size of round bars and thickness of equal angle steels in the rake part. The result was defined by operating the finite element method while performing the SolidWorks Simulation. The appropriate size of the round bar and equal angle steel was found to be 10 mm for the diameter of round bars and 3 mm for the thickness of equal angle steels.
