A weighing block extending in a longitudinal direction in a transverse direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction and extending in a vertical direction orthogonal to the two directions (X, Y), wherein the weighing block comprises: a) a fixed land for supporting control arms or levers, b) two control arms (L o L u), wherein each of the two control arms extends in the longitudinal direction from a first end portion to a second end portion opposite the first end, wherein each control arm (L o L u) is connected via at least one support joint (Gs) to the fixed land, c) a load receiver for receiving a weight force introduced along the height direction, wherein the two control arms each having their second end via at least one link joint (G R) are connected to the load receiver so that the load receiver is guided in parallel relative to the fixed land in the height direction, d) that the individual components of the weighing block are built up in layers according to the principle of additive manufacturing (3D printing) and are monolithically coherent, e) wherein the weighing block has undercuts which are formed during additive manufacturing by zones in which no material layer is built up, characterized in f) that a first lever is provided, which is arranged between a first end portion (H 1) and a second end portion (H 2), wherein the first lever connects at its first end portion (H 1) to an at least one load joint (G L) comprising a coupling element for forwarding a force, and wherein the first lever is connected via a support joint (Gs) to the fixed land, and wherein both the support joint (Gs) as well as the load joint (G L) build a pivot axis (A GS, a GL), and g) that the load joint (G L) in order to connect two portions of the weighing block to one another in an articulated manner, in the form of a cross-spring joint, in which at least two material webs together connect the first portion to the second portion, and wherein one of the material webs forms an angle (α) with another material web in a projection along the pivot axis, with 45° ≤ α ≤ 135°, preferably α = 90°. a) a fixed land for supporting control arms or levers, b) two control arms (L o L u), wherein each of the two control arms extends in the longitudinal direction from a first end portion to a second end portion opposite the first end, wherein each control arm (L o L u) is connected via at least one support joint (Gs) to the fixed land, c) a load receiver for receiving a weight force introduced along the height direction, wherein the two control arms each having their second end via at least one link joint (G R) are connected to the load receiver so that the load receiver is guided in parallel relative to the fixed land in the height direction, d) that the individual components of the weighing block are built up in layers according to the principle of additive manufacturing (3D printing) and are monolithically coherent, e) wherein the weighing block has undercuts which are formed during additive manufacturing by zones in which no material layer is built up, characterized in f) that a first lever is provided, which is arranged between a first end portion (H 1) and a second end portion (H 2), wherein the first lever connects at its first end portion (H 1) to an at least one load joint (G L) comprising a coupling element for forwarding a force, and wherein the first lever is connected via a support joint (Gs) to the fixed land, and wherein both the support joint (Gs) as well as the load joint (G L) build a pivot axis (A GS, a GL), and g) that the load joint (G L) in order to connect two portions of the weighing block to one another in an articulated manner, in the form of a cross-spring joint, in which at least two material webs together connect the first portion to the second portion, and wherein one of the material webs forms an angle (α) with another material web in a projection along the pivot axis, with 45° ≤ α ≤ 135°, preferably α = 90°.
