Designing a rectified supply

I'm having to design a rectified supply for electroplating. This supply has a current is not inverse. µin= 220V three phase f=50 hz, Uout=10-24v, Iout=800A, stabilizing current for supply. I hope everybody can help me as soon as possible. Thanks so much!

If available, look for the IEEE handbook on electrical engineering and look for rectifier designs. (How much do you know about electricity/engineering?) Since you need the current stability, the circuit complexity increases a lot. I would use a proper transformer to step down voltage that will give you step up current, then a bridge rectifier with a filter to reduce ripple, then current stability and voltage variation circuit. Rest you have to figure out!
