mass pivots aligner

Description

Hi all, i'm working with nurbs object in max imported from rhino. the problem is that most format for import-export lose all the transformation position and the pivots are aligned to the world. so each obj while they are still the same one get a different pivot orientation. like in this image i need to have the pivots aligned all in the same way so to can istance them correctly. like here is there a way a script to align pivots on multiple objects without to do it manually one by one? without to be istances

thank you for the answer, but you suggestion doesn't work as mass modifier... just one by one.

i need to place the pivots oriented on the objects on each object... then i can istance them all in a go.

this should work; in te command panel set to moving the pivot only, press Shift+a, click the node you want the pivot aligned to.
however.. if you then instance/copy/ref one of them and move it some other place the pivot wont stay withe others as the mesh has a relative offset to the pivot
