Few thousand small pins to drill on a mill; automatic loading with the spindle?

A long U shaped ramp which can hold numerous parts Ending near the vice
Then 2 small air cilinders to unload one part at a time
Let it roll right in position in the vice
If that is not working use a cilinder to push it into position And then a cilinder on that first cilinder to push it onto a ramp ending in a bin
But for just 3000 ????

Make some simple trays that load a few hundred of them, if you have enough table space, and pick them up and load them into your pneumatic vise with a Schunk parallel gripper loaded in a tool holder. Especially easy if you have thru spindle coolant or thru spindle air but there are ways to run it from the outside as well.

A magnet might be pretty effective though and extremely cheap. Worth giving it a shot.
