One of the keys in understanding the existence of superheavy elements with proton numbers Z ≥ 104 is the study of phenomena like nuclear shell effects far from stability. For these studies, one has to measure atomic masses at the borders of the nuclear chart very accurately. In 2021, the performance of the mass spectrometer SHIPTRAP at the GSI in Darmstadt was significantly improved. As a result, the atomic masses of several heavy At, Bi, Cf, Fr, Rn, Th, Po and Pb isotopes and the superheavy nuclides ²⁵⁷Rf (Z=104) and ²⁵⁸Db (Z=105) were measured directly. For many of these nuclides also long-lived isomeric states were observed allowing us to determine their excitation energy. In this contribution, an overview of the experimental improvements and results will be given.
