Attachment of the year
pinkquick® was honoured by Baublatt Austria as "Attachment of the Year". It is the latest and most technically innovative quick-change system from Winkelbauer.
Baublatt industry get-together
Our latest and most innovative, fully hydraulic quick-change system pinkquick® was named “Attachment of the Year 2026”. This award is presented annually by Baublatt Österreich for innovations that sustainably improve day-to-day work in the construction industry.
The award ceremony took place as part of the Baublatt industry get-together at Perchtoldsdorf Castle. Michael and Stephan Winkelbauer, Georg Fetz and Thomas Weiß accepted the award. The award was presented by Karl Englert, publishing director and editor, and Alexander Riell, editor-in-chief of Baublatt Österreich.
Attachment of the year
pinkquick®
pinkquick® combines what was previously separate in this class: hydraulics and electrics, safety and speed, robustness and flexibility. It is the answer to the need for universal, open solutions that are not restrictive but can be used across all brands. Solutions that make construction sites safer and noticeably speed up processes.
It is a fully hydraulic quick-change system for Construction machinery – developed by Winkelbauer as a next-generation system with fully integrated electrics, which forms the basis for MIC 4.0. The fully hydraulic system can be combined with all common Attachments and common quick-change systems on the market, and offers a robust and low-maintenance solution for Construction machinery in the 3.5 to 18 tonne range.
FAQ
What issues does pinkquick® solve in the industry?
Traditional quick-change systems often reach their limits in terms of maintenance requirements, robustness and combinability – especially on harsh construction sites. pinkquick® addresses precisely these weaknesses. pinkquick® reduces the need for conversions when changing attachments, as it is suitable for all common attachments and thus ensures greater efficiency on construction sites.
The integrated “front-pin-lock” provides additional fall protection. pinkquick is therefore future-proof for all safety standards and complies with EN 474-5.
pinkquick® is a fully hydraulic quick-change system with a new patented clutch system that combines hydraulics and electrics and is therefore also MIC4.0-capable. This clearly distinguishes it from the standard fully hydraulic systems on the market in this class. The patented system is robust and low-maintenance, as no additional lubrication points are required. It also has only a low mechanical load during the clutch process.
Thanks to the high-flow couplings (5 hydraulic circuits, up to 330 bar Pressure, and flow rates up to 200 l/min), pinkquick® is equipped for demanding hydraulic Attachments – ensuring smooth operation and maximum performance.
The patented design dispenses with complicated wear parts and covers, minimising the mechanical load. Apart from the clutches, there are no other wearing parts. By dispensing with lubrication points, pinkquick® is virtually maintenance-free.
The low-maintenance and wear-reduced design of pinkquick® reduces downtime and maintenance costs in the long term. As it can be combined with all common Attachments and machines, existing tools can continue to be used.
