So far I got perfect results only outsourcing to a water-jet cutter but it is expensive to use on a regular basis. I tried driving a dremel with different discs (diamond and for plastic PVC) on a linear guide, the result is great but not perfect. There is still a little bit of burr left on the edge or I guess the resin coating is slightly burnt.. it is hard to tell but it is not perfect. Any hints or ideas ?

I am using one where the motor slides on a rail above, so the carbon plate can't get scratched from sliding on a metal surface. You may have to improvise to mount the disc. I used a small ring of a worn down angle grinder disc as a chim, otherwise the disc would have been too narrow. Thanks for the response! I will give it a try. it seems the ones that the motor slides are quite expensive so I think I will go for one similar to the link I sent above..
