The aim of this research paper is to minimize the processes and production cost in a spray powder line. The coating operation is the bottleneck point in modular furniture industries. For minimize the wastage of the powder by avoiding overspray painting on the article and improved the quality of the coating by using work study methodology and RTA method. Both are widely used to produce articles as per customer's demands. The sequencing is an important factor in powder coating industries. For resolved the sequencing problem in favour of minimizing the total cost and keeping uniform usage of each part and cost model is presented. To get best alternative between work study and RTA method, a comparison is done, concerning sequencing problem. This investigation suggests best sequence of the process and method. It gives continued consumption of parts as well as reducing cycle time which helps for higher production and cost saving.
