MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine
MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine is a compact pneumatic solution for controlled installation of Ø1-Ø6 mm fiber optic cables in Ø7-Ø20 mm ducts. It is built for FTTH, access network, indoor, and short-route microduct jobs where stable feeding and quick changeover matter more than oversized equipment.
The machine combines mechanical pushing force with compressed air, making it easier to install small-diameter fiber cables with less surface stress and better control in narrow field conditions. Its portable body, digital distance counter, quick connection layout, and replaceable pallet system make it practical for day-to-day contractor use.

Overview
The MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine is designed for installers working with micro cables, access networks, and FTTH routes where precision is more important than raw pushing force. Its pneumatic drive structure supports smooth cable feeding, while the exit box directs compressed air into the pre-installed duct to help reduce friction during installation.
Unlike bulky machines that are excessive for small cable jobs, MikroFOK keeps the setup compact and practical. The operator can quickly change pulling rolls, cable aligning parts, nutring seals, and duct connection tools according to cable and duct diameter. That shortens preparation time and makes the machine easier to adapt to mixed project conditions.
It is also a good fit for narrow working zones such as manholes, building entrances, floor transitions, risers, and cabinet areas where larger units are simply awkward to position. The compact frame, directional control valve, and digital distance counter all support cleaner and more controlled field work.
For ultra-small FTTH and access-network cable routes, bend-insensitive fiber constructions commonly referenced under ITU-T G.657 are often more relevant than standard outside-plant assumptions. See also MikroFOK vs ElektroFOK for model selection.

MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine Features
Compact Pneumatic Drive
The pneumatic motor layout keeps the machine light, field-friendly, and practical for micro cable installation without adding unnecessary mechanical bulk.
Digital Distance Counter
An integrated digital counter helps the operator track installed length during the blowing process and maintain better control on repeat jobs.
Direction Control Valve
Forward and reverse control allows better handling during setup, adjustment, and cable positioning.
Pressure Regulation
The pressure regulating unit helps control the force applied through the air motors and the cable feeding system.
Air Lubrication Unit
The air preparation and lubrication assembly supports motor life and more stable operation by conditioning compressed air before it reaches the drive system.
Replaceable Roll & Tool Sets
Pulling rolls, cable aligning tools, nutring seals, and duct connection tools can be changed quickly to match different cable and duct sizes.
Where MikroFOK Works Best
- FTTH last-mile installation
- Microduct fiber deployment
- Building entry and riser work
- Campus and enterprise access networks
- Indoor telecom cable routing
- Urban access infrastructure with narrow work zones
For buyers comparing models, MikroFOK sits in the compact pneumatic segment. If your route needs a slightly wider cable range, see MiniFOK. If you need an electric option for small cables, review ElektroFOK. If you are still unsure, the cable blowing machine selection guide does the sorting without the usual marketing fog.

MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine FAQ
What cable range is supported by the MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine?
MikroFOK is designed for fiber optic cable diameters from Ø1 mm to Ø6 mm.
What duct sizes can be used with MikroFOK?
The machine is configured for duct outer diameters from Ø7 mm to Ø20 mm, depending on the selected duct connection tool and sealing setup.
Is the MikroFOK Cable Blowing Machine suitable for FTTH projects?
Yes. MikroFOK is particularly well suited for FTTH, access network, indoor, and microduct-based fiber installation projects where small cable sizes and compact field setup are required.
Does the machine include all pallet and duct tools?
Standard delivery includes one pulling roll set, one cable aligning tool set, one nutring seal set, and one duct connection tool. Additional sizes can be supplied according to project needs.
What compressor is required for MikroFOK?
The machine works with compressed air up to 12 bar. The datasheet lists maximum air consumption as 1.5 m³/min at 6 bar. Actual field performance depends on route condition, compressor stability, and cable-duct combination.
Should I choose MikroFOK, MiniFOK, or ElektroFOK?
Choose MikroFOK for compact pneumatic micro cable jobs in the Ø1-Ø6 mm range. Move to MiniFOK for a wider micro cable range, or compare with ElektroFOK if you prefer an electric-drive small cable solution.
