220VAC single phase to 380VAC 3phase for Lathe/Milling machine

[jarrydred]

Hi

I have a question, is it possible to use a single phase 220VAC supply and use an inverter or VFD to convert to a 380VAC 3phase power, to run a milling machine and a lathe separatly ?- How much current will the single phase be drawing, the lathe has a 380VAC 5HP motor and the milling machine is a 380VAC 3HP motor, also if there is an inverter can you wire it up directly to the machine as if it was natural 3 phase 380VAC input

please post links to inverter or VFD's if possible

Thanks
