not sure what you are doing but here is a pretty good guide for ametek
motors that can be use to generate power:
Alternators and synchronous motors are the very same thing. However
synchronous motors run at the speed dictated by the frequency of the
supply you put to them. You may need as well as DC supply for the
"excitation" if it doesn't have a permenant magnet. So you would need
to purchase an expensive inverter that would put out the range of
frequencies to cover the speed range you wanted.
Thank you all.

Jim could I get a copy of the pdf file. Im reporting a good email
address. One common use is for routers in a computer controled milling
table. They can spin at some unbelievable RPM.

Hello,
All electrical motors can be run in generetor, but depending on the motor
it will be more or less difficult.
An induction motor will work as a generator if you make it turn faster
than the sync speed. So a three phase induction motor with a sync speed
of 1800 rpm, if you run it at 1801 an more rpms, you will be generating.
But that may be too complicated for you because you need to have an
"exitation source".
The easiest method may be to use a PMSM (Permanent Magnet Synchronous
Motor) or a PM DC motor. This way, if you turn the shaft, you will
generate electricity right away. If you use a PMSM, with a diode bridge
rectifier you will have a DC link with some fluctuation. With the PM DC
Motor, with a constant speed you will have a Constant DC link. The more
amps you will pull, the more torque the motor/generator will create.
Anyway, good luck with your project.
