Abstract
A monolithic weighing system including a base (), a load holder (), which is articulated on the base () through a parallel link arrangement (), and a lever (), which is articulated on the load holder () and which has an attachment point for a force compensating arrangement and a target area () for an optical position sensor (). The target area () has a slotted diaphragm () in a thin walled lever section of the lever () in the deflection plane thereof. A position sensor pedestal (), which is integrally connected to the base (), is arranged laterally adjacent to the target area (). The position sensor pedestal has a pedestal aperture (), which extends perpendicularly to the deflection plane. The slotted diaphragm () of the target area () is laser-machined through the pedestal aperture ().
