One of the biggest problems in growing legumes like peas is harvesting these types of crops. During the machine harvesting process the harvest loss is very high. Therefore, in most parts of Iran chickpea harvested by hand and this is very tedious. Based on the literature review there are different types of harvesting machines which designed, constructed and optimized by Miller et al., 1990; Golpira, 2015; Shahbazi, 2011; Jalali and Abdi, 2014; Mahamodi, 2016. But using different varieties of chickpea in mountainous areas has limited the use of harvesting mechanisms. The purpose of this study is mechanization of the harvesting process of chickpea with low losses and suitable performance. Moreover the optimization process of lowering the weight of the header was carried out by modeling of software
