West Fargo, N.D.-based Bobcat Co. last week said it will move some of the production carried out at its closing Bismarck, N.D., plant to a former computer disk manufacturing facility in Wahpeton, about 50 miles east of Gwinner.

The company will move about 60 positions there to manufacture hydraulic valves and cylinders for small loaders and light construction equipment.

Earlier this year, the company announced it would close the Bismarck manufacturing facility, and transfer most of its production activity to its Gwinner, N.D., and Litchfield, Minn., locations.
