The paper deals with the conception design of a special agricultural machine intended to mow and cultivate lands between rows of planted corn. In the design process there were verified Concurrent Engineering Principles. The frame of the designed machine was put to an multivariable optimization procedure using the software system Pro/MECHANICA. The optimization variables were diameter and wall-thickness of the frame pipe. The goal function was created with the aim to reach a mass (cost) reduction keeping the given strength 120 Mpa. The process has resulted into a reduction of the cross-section area of the machine supporting frame pipe providing us with a mass reduction of 10.4 %.
