I have a similar guilotine, and it does cut FR4, but the edge is not smooth afterwards. 
 
I used to sand the edges on a linnisher / Table mounted belt sander.

No, with this thicker PCB I have that takes A LOT OF EFFORT (it is the
PCB that I use when I make power supplies to deliver tens of amps).

Milling machines work very well but they make dust and are not the
quickest to use... I would really like to see how a shear works.
