I've got a 1 1/4 HP 3 phase 400 volt motor (from my milling machine). If I get a single phase, 2hp motor, would it be possible to make a thing to couple the shafts together so that by switching on the single phase motor, the three phase motor will act as a generator and output three phase, 400 volts? And if so, can this be used to power any three phase machines I get in the future (Provided their motor is 1HP or less)?
