Anybody who manufactures point motors for the standard gauge! As long as the switch rail travel is the same, and the rail height is the same, you should be able to use standard-gauge machines. For example, the Ffestiniog uses recovered standard-gauge point motors (GEC HAs I think).

The Ffestiniog and Ravenglass also use machines made by Signal Aspects especially for narrow gauge lines:
