ULTRAXIS has won a tender to install a precise continuous displacement measurement system to monitor the security of the Grand Masters Palace at Malbork Castle.
Malbork Castle was built in the 14th century and is the largest brick castle in the world. One of the most famous parts of this castle is the Palace of the Grand Masters of the Teutonic Order.
Due to its historical and architectural significance, as well as due to the observation of disturbing deformations of the structure, it was decided to use a modern, precise system for measuring the stability of the palace.
Ultraxis proposed a four-point AXIS HLS system, which was installed in the ground floor of the Palace of the Grand Masters in August 2024.
The AXIS HLS system consists of four connected sensors and is equipped with a center for collection and visualization pf the measurement data.
