Can you use a rotary phase converter to get 3 phase 220VAC fron single phase 220VAC?

Any normal VFD does exactly that, if that is to drive the spindle.
For other stuff, depends on what exactly.

Did you ever get the spindle working? I see it’s been a few years. I sort of gave up on mine, I probably spent a few weeks with a Moeller VFD and it’s 375 page manual and got no were. be very interested in hearing of a working Yaskawa spindle motor with modern vfd.
