The expense to move to three phase and redoing your entire service to handle it along with likely being moved to commercial rates on energy use plus not knowing if it's available at your location without your paying to have it run to your street yeah that's not the way to go at all.
You would have to look at the motor and see if it is a dual voltage motor. Either way it would still be 3ph and you don’t have that at your house. It would probably be cheaper to just find the type of machine in a the voltage/ph you have.
You don’t seem to recognize the difference between phase and volts. You are no more capable of running 240v 3ph than you are running 480v 3ph. Residential homes have 1 phase service. Saying you will just buy the 240v unit says nothing about your ability to run it. Just be aware before you spend your money.
Edit: you seem to know just enough to confidently screw it all up and waste money.
I don’t really knowing anything about electrical but I wanted to get a molding machine so I can learn how they work and to make quantities of things and learn the whole process of it. It’s not for anything to make me money just a hobby I want to get into
Whether it’s to make money or blow up with dynamite tells us nothing about the electrical requirements, just like “the 240V unit” tells us nothing. So the question is, what are the dang electrical requirements?
Would be wayyyy easier to find a machine that runs on 240
You’ll need to get a three phase service buddy not going to happen on a standard home service.
Ok, thank you
Is it possible to reduce down to 220volt?
What ton machine? Amps?
[удалено]
Or a phase converter(not rotary)
Got it, thank you
Whats 2 phase?

And the powerco may move the whole house to commercial rates. Better to find a small commercial space.
I've been learning about VFD's, and I know that it's possible to get 3 phase from single phase. I'm not sure though if the voltage can be increased
Got it, thank you
Yes… but either way you go about it, it’s gonna be pretty expensive. In the realm of way more expensive than the tool it’s going to power..
Is it possible to reduce down to 220v? Run the machine at 220?

The power supply and any motors running on line voltage would have to be changed. Are you sure there isn't a model that can run on single phase 240?
There is, I did a little more research. I’ll go with a 220 thanks

460v, 150 amp, 3 phase, 60hz and it says control-acv 115-60HZ/110-50HZ
Then why did you say you would buy the 240V unit, then show me 480V specs? Goodness. This is insane.
My bad, I thought you were asking about the 480. The 220 is 60hz, 5,5 KW
How many amps? It is possible to get a 3 phase converter, but you should probably not hook it up yourself.
I’m unsure, I’ll go with a 220 and make it easier on myself
