    What are the differences between metal backed and conventional printing blankets?

    to my knowledge the metal backed blankets are cylinder sleeves that are for webs and really new presses that are gapless printing, not made for normal offset. they are also like a roller that you have them recovered. on the web really cool how they slide on and off in seconds, flexo presses use them too. Hope that helps

    Yes I also knew that but on Heidelberg website, in XL 106 specs page, blanket type is metal backed. That's why I asked this question.

    Just had a quick read. Is it only for webs or can one get for the MOV and KORD64 as well?
