Run them off variable frequency drives I have a 3 phase late and a 3 phase milling machine running of a domestic supply.
The lathe motor couldn’t be altered to star (?) wiring so runs at 58% power or 58% speed the milling machine took 5 mins to alter and works perfectly.
The drives were £75 on eBay.
no, unfortunately not. i am working on a job at the moment where one of the neighbours is a garage that has just had new lifts, compressor, tyre balancer and other stuff that i could have had for free if i had three phase - a missed opportunity...
