English term or phrase: ageing rock bands of "My Generation"
This has nothing to do with a passion for ageing rock bands of 'My Generation', but explains that VPR100 is the test equipment for the DeLaval service technician to use.

Explanation:
说话者可能在演示VPR100检测仪时做出某种模仿乐队声音或动作后,幽默地说他这样做的目的:“不是告诉大家我多么喜欢《我这一代人》的老歌,而是向大家展示作为DeLaval设备的维修人员该如何使用VPR100。”
“My Generation”此处可能有双关语的意思,一方面指那首著名的流行歌,另一方面也几乎明示了自己属于和那些老迈乐队的同龄人。

Asker: 表面意思好像是这样,但是觉得跟but explains that VPR100 is the test equipment for the DeLaval service technician to use一点关联没有。
