In connection with moving the factory to its current location, John Rohdemejer changes the name of the company from Horsens Forsølvnings- og Forkromningsanstalt to Horsens Anodiserings Industri. The new factory of 2.000 m2 is already too small for commissioning, and the company is busy. In a newspaper article from 1973 it is written: "And the company is busy, which takes on very large tasks and is not without reason described as one of the largest in Northern Europe.

The production of vending machines is discontinued in the 1950s.

During this decade, Fabrikant Richard Rohdemejer could celebrate its 25th anniversary. On March 13, 1938, the newspaper writes: "As the years went by, the factory's turnover grew, and for the last 10 years it has been based at Houmannsgade 55. Not least because of the manufacturer's own efforts, the products from Horsens Automatfabrik quickly became a well-respected brand, and at the moment the company employs approximately 30 people".

As the years went by, the company grew and was exclusively in the business of manufacturing vending machines. Below this was a department that could nickel-plated, chrome-plated and silver-plated the handles of the vending machines. With this type of surface treatment, the machines looked inviting and salable - even without regular cleaning.
