[0002] Tablets refer to sheet preparations formed by evenly mixing drugs and excipients and compressing them. Tablets are a commonly used drug dosage form in hospitals. Tablets are easy to carry and can effectively treat diseases. However, some tablets in hospitals are larger in size, and patients have individual differences in medication. For some patients, they do not need a large dose of medicine. Doctors may prescribe half a tablet, one third or one quarter tablet according to the patient's specific situation. Pharmacies need to cut the tablets into pieces to meet specific medication needs. Therefore, these tablets need to be split.

[0003] Tablet cutting uses special tools, such as tablet cutters or clean blades, to split the tablets one by one. However, the current tablet splitting devices generally only split single tablets, and a device can only split a single tablet, such as half a tablet, a quarter tablet, etc., which causes pharmacists working in hospital pharmacies to face heavy slicing work every day. Using blades to split is undoubtedly inaccurate and cannot meet the slicing needs of hospital pharmacies; secondly, it is only for single-tablet splitting and cannot be used for batch splitting of tablets, which is undoubtedly inefficient; thirdly, it is impossible to split tablets of different sizes and specifications at the same time, which still affects efficiency.
