熔化切割一般使用惰性气体，如果代之以氧气或其它活性气体，材料在激光束的照射下被点燃，与氧气发生激烈的化学反应而产生另一热源，称为氧化熔化切割。具体描述如下：
⑴材料表面在激光束的照射下很快被加热到燃点温度，随之与氧气发生激烈的燃烧反应，放出大量热量。在此热量作用下，材料内部形成充满蒸汽的小孔，而小孔的周围为熔融的金属壁所包围。
⑵燃烧物质转移成熔渣控制氧和金属的燃烧速度，同时氧气扩散通过熔渣到达点火前沿的快慢也对燃烧速度有很大的影响。氧气流速越高，燃烧化学反应和去除熔渣的速度也越快。当然，氧气流速不是越高越好，因为流速过快会导致切缝出口处反应产物即金属氧化物的快速冷却，这对切割质量也是不利的。
⑶显然，氧化熔化切割过程存在着两个热源，即激光照射能和氧与金属化学反应产生的热能。据估计，切割钢时，氧化反应放出的热量要占到切割所需全部能量的60%左右。
很明显，与惰性气体比较，使用氧作辅助气体可获得较高的切割速度。
⑷在拥有两个热源的氧化熔化切割过程中，如果氧的燃烧速度高于激光束的移动速度，割缝显得宽而粗糙。如果激光束移动的速度比氧的燃烧速度快，则所得切缝狭而光滑。
