How to unlock the We Are in a Hurry achievement in Unmechanical: Extended - Definitive Guide
Near the end of the game, there is one place where there are what look like three platforms (pumps) moving vertically in unison. To the left are three red orbs which, if you use the tractor beam, will allow you to stop one platform each, which staggers the platforms and makes it easier to pass through this area.
Do not do that. Do not touch those orbs.
Instead, line up next to the top-left corner of the first platform, but far enough below the air vent, and make a run for it as soon as there is a gap.
With good timing, you should be far enough right that when the last platform hits, you get squeezed to the right and into the tunnel, and not into the vents.
With even better timing, you don't get hit by the pumps at all.
This video from "aka Scratch" demonstrates this achievement.

The achievement's name implies that it is a time base achievement, but it's Not. I followed Scratch's video above and got it.

Eventually you will come to a level where you see a pump and three bulbs, instead of adjusting the pump don't light the bulbs and try to run pass it instead.
In Chapter 5 you'll come across a moving staircase with an air jet above it and 3 red lights to the left. Do not interact with any of the lights. Simply hover just below where the airjets are and time your approach to get a small running start so that you hit the gap when the steps drop at full speed just as they start to fall. This one is super easy, and can be seen at timestamp 0:39:53 in the walkthrough video above.
This is near the end of the game, after solving the TV puzzle and flying through a series of moving pumps in a few hallways.
You'll see some wind blowing left in the room, while some stairs/pumps are moving up and down below. There is three red switches to the left, DO NOT TOUCH THESE. You need to fly through without messing around with the switches. Just place yourself just below the wind, take a flying start and try and time it so you hit the pumps just as they move down. As soon as you're through, the trophy will pop.
