A system and apparatus for roll forming to neck-in D&I cans ends and replace double necks and triple necks is disclosed. An externally disposed free roll is moved inward and axially against the outside wall of the open end of a trimmed can. A spring loaded interior support roller moves under the forming force of the free roll. This is a single operation where the can rotates and the free roll rotates such that a smooth conical necked end and flange are produced.
