    Talking What is the best router to cut this foam/rubber?

    Hi guys,
    I tried to cut this foam/rubber with a 30° endmill, then I tried a 45° endmill but as you can see it just tore the hell out of it.
    I also noticed the plastic ontop just melted around the edges.
    I've got a proper router on the way, so I tried to machine it in our VMC, I ran it at 8000 RPM.
    Could someone please advise what is the best style of router to machine this material?
    Thanks
