Given what Agathon has posted links to, I would of though 400 or 750 watt servos would work nicely.
The smaller machine you've posted a photo of, I would of thought 200 or 400 watt.
To give some idea, IIRC Denford Triacs with servos, came with 200W servos, however they'd be conservatively sized due to being aimed at education. They perform well enough, however 400W would give a good boost to performance and work just as well.
Yes, I think the 200W Omron drivers I've just bought will be too small, but will try them geared at 3:1. They were very cheap, so I'm not worried if I have to put them back on the market. I shall be keeping an eye out for 400W which is what they currently fit to the very slightly larger version of my machine.

Do you know what the ratio was on the Triac servos?
