Abstract: After designing the product specification and production processes, a kind of high-count and high-density cotton/Tencel^TM ultra-thin shirting was produced by interlacing high-count cotton yarn and Tencel^TM staple yarn. High-count and high-density fabrics with a high total number of warps are plagued with certain production difficulties and require smooth, moisture absorption and breathable properties.The paper analyzed the technologies adopted in the weaving process, including warping, sizing and air-jet weaving process and explained the main technical points of the finishing process. The result showed that the looming weaving efficiency reached over 94% after the product was put into production; the first grade percentage before cloth repairing reached 87%; the first grade percentage during storage reached 99%. And all performance indicators of the finished product reached the superior standard.
