Yes. With SOME, you may need a motor-generator set, or an inverter, to convert the single-phase power to three-phase power....
Some more modern 3-phase welders will operate directly on single-phase, because they're inverter-type units already.
Many 'classic' transformer-based industrial welders can be made to operate easily off single phase power, at full output using the "Haas-Kamp Conversion". Do a web-search for Haas-Kamp and your welder's brand and model- if it's a popular welder, someone has probably already done it.

You could use a motor/generator set, but it would be expensive and potentially non-economical.

Can you convert a 277 volt ac unit to 230 volt?
There in no quick and inexpensive way of doing this conversion. A transformer would have to be used and this type of winding is not common. 277 volts is the wye voltage of a three phase 480 volt system.
Is sj cord rated for 300 volts to be used for 480 volt?
No. The voltage rating needs to be 600 volts for 480 volt power.
Can a 575 volt drive power a 480 volt motor?
No, that is too much.
Can you run a 570 volt motor on 480 volt three phase power supply?
No, the voltage difference is too much. A 570 volt motor falls in the 600 volt range which is separate from the 480 volt range of three phase systems.
What color should a H2 Conductor on 480 volt transformer should be marked?
The conductor for H2 connection on a 480 volt wire transformer should be marked:
Can you run single phase 230 from one side of 480 volt 3 phase?
No, you will not obtain 230 volts. From a wye connected three phase 480 volt supply, 277 volts can be obtained from one phase leg and the neutral on the wye connection. 480 volts/1.73 (sq. root of 3) = 277 volts.
What is the required wire size for a 230 feet run 480 volt 100 amp?
Depends on length. The more length, the more resistance.

What is 230 increased 250?
It is: 230+250 = 480
Can you run 480 volt motors in a 380 volt system?
Can I run 480 volt , 60 HZ motor at a 380 volt , 60 Hz system?
Can 480 volt electric be run in emt conduit?
Yes 480 volt electric wiring can be run in emt conduit.
A 480-volt circuit has an impedace of 60 ohms what is the current?
480 volts and 60ohm impedence current = volt/impedence current=480/60 current=8ampeares
Is sj cord rated for 300 volts to be used for 480 volt?
No. The voltage rating needs to be 600 volts for 480 volt power.

Should 2 legs of 480 volt 3 phase each have 480 volts?
Across a 480 volt three phase system, 480 volts should appear across L1 and L2, L2 and L3 and L3 and L1.
How can you hook a 230v 3 phase lathe to 480v 3 phase incoming power?
Inspect all motor labels and see if they are dual voltage motors. If they are, they should have a label on them telling you how to convert the motors for 480 volt. This is a relative simple task. Converting to 480 volts will lower the motor current to half of the 230 volt rating, so you will have to change the overload heaters in the individual motor starters. You need to do this to protect the motors in case of overloading. Last the control transformer will need to be reconnected for 480 volt.
