Default Roller Swaging

To start with I would use rotary swaging over roller -- you end up with a more symmetrical swage.

If forced to use roller swaging, I would swage only once, don't turn 90 degrees to smooth the ridge. The second swage will fatigue to body of the fitting.

Also, make sure the roller swager is in spec/adjusted correctly.
