compressor wiring

good evening, i am looking for some input on wiring my compressor for my garage. i currently have a 220 outlet for my lincoln powermig 200.

the plug on the welder is what i have heard called a 50 amp plug. center round terminal with to more terminals parralell to eachother.

my compressor has a different plug on it with a straight center terminal and 2 more straight terminals that are parralell to eachother but angled. similar to what a household dryer plug is.
also believe this to be called a 30 amp plug?
compressor plug looks like this:

what i am looking for is to know if i can just replace the end plug on the compressor to match the welder outlet on the wall or would/should i wire in an outlet just for the compressor?

thanks
steve
